The economy is recovering pretty well all things considered, however there definitely needs to be more improvement in "real" jobs(ie., salaried positions or higher paying jobs). Retail and fast food are a huge part of the growth and those aren't sustainable career paths in most cases. Do I think the executive branch is or has the answer to this? Not really. The best scenario would be Congress passing a comprehensive jobs bill that includes fixing our interstate system / bridges and puts a lot of blue collar workers back to work, which then means they're spending their money on shiny new iPhones, vehicles, and greasy cheeseburgers.
I don't think it's likely to happen with this GOP in the majority, though. The GOP needs more John McCains and less John Boehners.
