Jobenomics

Jobe

nomics, the book, deals with the economics of business, job, wealth and tax revenue creation. Jobenomics, the national grassroots movement, has a goal of creating 20 million new US private sector jobs by 2020 (20 by 20). The Jobenomics movement has grown significantly in the last year and a half. Over three million people have been reached via national and social media, lectures, as well as word-of-mouth. Our movement appeals to all categories of people, from liberals to conservatives, rich to poor, urban and rural, since it a movement focused squarely on business and job creation. Jobenomics is also engaged in numerous highly scalable, proof-of-concept projects and initiatives that have grown rapidly since the movement’s commencement in September 2010.

After sixty years of growth in America, jobs creation abruptly stopped. The American economic engine lost almost a million private sector jobs in the last decade (2000s), compared to gains of 10 to 20 million new jobs in previous decades (1940s through 1990s). To get our economic engine running again, America needs to create a minimum of 20 million new private sector jobs by 2020 (20 by 20). Jobenomics’ Plan for America has prescriptions for small, large, foreign and emerging technology jobs creation concepts and initiatives.

The Jobenomics “20 by 20″ Campaign is comprised of four business categories: Small & Self-Employed, Large, Foreign, and Energy Technology Revolution. Small, emerging and self-employed business categories comprise 18 million new private sector jobs by 2020 (90% of goal). The large business category comprises 2 million (10% of goal). The government sector (not shown) is planned for zero growth. Detailed reports on these categories and economic trends will be placed regularly in “Recent Posts” and “Categories” sections on the right side of this screen.

So how are we doing since the beginning of this decade (1 Jan 2010)? As of 1 May 2012, Americans are producing only 52% of the number of jobs needed as measured by the traditional benchmark of 250,000 jobs per month (i.e., a shortfall of 48%). The private sector is producing all the of the new jobs while governments (mainly State and Local government) are shedding jobs due to loss of tax revenue and budget deficits. Detailed reports entitled, Employment Scoreboard and Unemployment Scoreboard, are updated monthly and are located in the ”Recent Posts” section.
