Having worked in corporate America most of my working career, I find the adulation of corporations in several replies above rather naive. Corporations especially since Reagan operate mostly under the tenet of profit and not employee or union sanctions. Profit doesn't care about jobs obviously. Another aspect to jobs is technology. The Internet may be a great source of info, but it along with improved communications networks, moved lots of jobs where profit is greatest. Jobs are created by demand and the period after WWII where durable goods and homes grew like crazy was our golden economic age.
So then what now. Where is demand and where jobs. Having moved up the food chain I can tell you it ain't with lower taxes for the wealthy. After your third home and second Bentley, your overall contribution is nil, unless the Mexicans doing the yard work count and the expensive Bordeaux helps.
I am a buy America nutcase and think that is a place to start. Obviously made here counts too as it contributes. We don't want to get into tariff wars as we all lose, I kinda like some cheap things too, but I refuse to shop in Wal-mart because of their labor practices.
I agree with Edmund Phelps that employers who hire should receive subsidies. It is only in a balanced economy of sensible demand and full employment (say 5% un) that we can provide jobs for all. Plus we older farts need to retire, provided we can still feed the wives's clothing fetish.

hey....they track it for a REASON and have years and years and years of statistics now that supports such....
now, what measures were taken to give consumers confidence is a whole 'nuther' story...
with clinton it took the balanced budget act and higher taxes on some i believe, to show consumers that their gvt was going to focus on fiscal responsibility and curbing the gvt growing debt....
The Balanced Budget Act?
I wonder if it was the effect of Reagan/Bush Presidencies?
After all, as Obama says, the economy of today is the fault of the PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION, right?
