Employers added 162,000 jobs, nearly three times the 56,000 economists expected. The unemployment rate held at 4.1%. Financial television called it a rebound, the stock tickers turned green, and the story was over by lunch.Buried further down in that same report were some numbers that tell a very different story about what is happening to working Americans.

It was cheap fun—gas was likely more expensive than the $10 for 90 clays and the other $10 for the handheld disc thrower we forgot back at home.Crushing clays was fun, but I also really enjoyed rearing…
