To follow up on that point, I am looking at regional differences but also at the value of the job and lower-wage versus higher-wage jobs. Are the 90,000 jobs being created high paying or are they lower-wage jobs? I wonder because obviously, both will be created by virtue of an economy rolling over. I wonder about the ratios between the higher and lower-paid jobs. Lower-wage jobs would be vulnerable for many different reasons.
