“Charts and data provided by longtime correspondent B.C. reflect what many know from first-hand experience: employment is trending down. The growth rate of employment is declining over time, as positive growth weakens and recessionary declines deepen. Though the 3-year average annual change has improved to near-zero, the 5-year (i.e. longer-term trendline) is still solidly negative. There are two other trends in employment: 1. Decline of full-time jobs and the rise of part-time jobs 2. Stagnation of high-wage employment and increases in lower-wage job sectors.”
