How Many Jobs To Save Since 1971 Jobs and capital needs
Since 1971 over five million jobs have opened in the United States, bringing employment to 86 million. About two million entrants per year supply new jobs, with private sector providing roughly 85 percent of these gains. The Tax Foundation estimates average capital per industrial job at 27,000, with higher assets in oil refining and mining, implying billions needed for two million annual new jobs plus energy, housing, and pollution controls. Capital formation may fall short of development needs, so saving and reform are needed.
