What the FED does not appreciate is that the loss of higher paid jobs outweighs the addition of lower paid jobs. Thus a qualitative analysis which looks at the nature of the job losses and creations, rather than the crude and inaccurate BLS survey of jobs, shows that the overall purchasing power of wages is falling given where the job cuts are concentrated.
