What's Wrong With This Picture?

[HT econmistsview.typepad.com] Looks like each recession since 1981 has taken longer to reach full recovery of jobs than than any before it. The recovery from 1990 was slower than any before it. The rcovery after 2001 was slower than the recovery after 1990. And now we have what looks like it will be a blowout record breaker

Would be interesting to see these compared to the recovery coming out of the great depression.

It may act as commentary on our economy slowly, moving from manufacturing based to service based. Recessions may act as an accelerant. Furthermore, the last three recessions were rooted in the financial sector, the foundation of our economy. Everyone is affected when banks are hurting. Anyway just some food for thought...
