274,000 jobs were created in April. But the most disturbing fact is that 6,000 were lost in manufacturing. Isn’t a strong economy built around making something? Is the USA becoming a middleman? 58,000 new jobs in recreation and leisure, 47,000 in construction and 25,000 new jobs in Health Care. Who is making the flat screen TVs, the IPODs, the Gap Chinos, the Hybrid Cars? At least here in Modesto we grow and make food. We will keep our leadership position in food? You have to wonder.
