Jobs in the US
According to an article at BBC News:
The health of the jobs market is vital for economic confidence in the US, with consumer spending remaining the biggest influence on American growth.
Wages however seem to have stayed flat. It's not entirely clear how that works when the "proportion of adults employed or looking for work which is at a ten-year low." Maybe some people leaving jobs are better paid than those getting jobs. That could definitely be the case as boomers move out of the work force.
