As I mentioned to Jason on Twitter, I'm not sure if I should be scared or encouraged! The one line that really jumps out at me is the green one...if I'm reading this correctly, does that mean that the overall rate of growth of employment here in the U.S. is moving in a downward direction? Does this correlate with the growth of technology, decrease in need for skilled/unskilled labor, and off-shoring of jobs? If so, then in absolute numbers....there aren't going to be as many jobs out there when the "recovery" happens...? Is it a reflection of a decreasing birthrate? Inquiring minds want to know :-) Looking forward to the seminar ~ Wow, interesting data points. As I mentioned to Jason on Twitter, I’m not sure if I should be scared or encouraged!

I was curious about something. So I went on line to see if there was any correlation between major historical events (wars in particular) and positive growth in employment. I found that there was one definite similarity and this may be old news to you guys. The beginning of each major war from 1939 through 1991 was also the beginning of a major positive employment growth spike, each of which lasted from 1 to 3 years. The Vietnam War had many spikes throughout its duration and the first Gulf War's spike lasted 4 years after that war was over. Are there any other good barometers that can be used to measure when positive employment growth can be expexted? and does positive employment growth necessarily mean that the economy and the dollar are getting stronger?
