"Higher—paid jobs rise at faster clip"
The New York Times and other liberally—inclined media outlets have cast cold water on employment figures ever since George Bush won his first election . Either a rise in employment did not match population growth (a measure only the Times seems to use and one that I cannot recall they ever used pre—Bush*) or the rise was in low wage ("hamburger—flipping") jobs.
Now a new study from a liberal think tank makes note that the number of higher—paid jobs have noticeably picked up of late in a very strong fashion.
* and one that does not take into account the growth in illegal immigrants — an ever—expanding group that the Times seems to fawn over.
