500K jobs with full benefits, pay that allows the worker to afford a modest place to live, and some extra left over for retirement/fun spending?

I feel like zero jobs like I described have been created in the last 4 years... probably longer.

Until jobs on par with manufacturing job in 1960 are coming along, I don't want to hear shit. Make a McDonald's job paying $25/hr, full time, with all benefits and I'll be there saying "oh this sounds good..."
