The U.S. Department of Labor released their forecast of the industries they anticipate will see the greatest job growth in the next 10 years.
The sagging economy, the catastrophic collapse of the American auto industry and the explosive growth of Internet technology conspired to cause the deterioration of certain traditional industries, particularly high-paying, blue-collar jobs such as auto manufacturing. There is, however, a corresponding growth of other industries where people least anticipated. The Bureau of Labor Statistics forecast that 96 percent of the increase in new employment will take place in service industries. –terry shropshire
