FW: FW: Clintonoids Serve Up Mud Pie Analysis

[Max Sawicky]

DH:
Perhaps I'm misremembering, but weren't the job effects the major 
things that EPI, the AFL-CIO, and Ross Perot all talked about in 
1992-3?

I suppose, keeping in mind that the terminology of
"job loss" is a concession to the public discourse
(where for the other side there is nothing but
"job gains" on the horizon).  For EPI it connotes
a shift in job composition due to the erosion of
manufacturing jobs.

DH:
No doubt at least some of the growth in temp help - which appears in 
the employment numbers as temp help, a service industry - has been 
among people actually working in factories. Anyone from EPI got a 
handle on this?

probably.  Maybe I can dig something up, though it
should be on our web site somewhere.
