What do you think could be done to help grow the number of mid-range and higher paying jobs?
It seems like the recession killed a lot of them and those companies that have come back or have been created since the recession are taking those jobs off shores.
There actually are a decent number of mid-range jobs out there that can't be filled. The last I read there were roughly 3 million jobs that companies can't fill because people are no longer going to trade schools to become plumbers, mechanics, welders etc.
So not only have we seen a shift in the type of jobs created, we have seen a shift in how people choose to educate themselves for the job market. Instead of encouraging kids to learn a trade they are encouraged to go to college then they graduate with a useless liberal arts degree and a ton of debt.
