Your recent article on corporate downsizing* in the United States is misleading. The article gives the mistaken impression that many competent workers who lost jobs as a result of downsizing face serious economic hardship, often for years, before finding other suitable employment. But this impression is contradicted by a recent report on the United States economy, which found that since 1992 far more jobs have been created than have been eliminated. The report also demonstrates that many of those who lost their jobs have found new employment. Two-thirds of the newly created jobs have been in industries that tend to pay above-average wages, and the vast majority of these jobs are full-time.

*Downsizing is the process in which corporations deliberately reduce the number of their employees.

These argument asserts that a recent article that warned corporae downsizing in the United State is misleading, however, this argument are based on a series falseful reductions and evidence, which render it untenable.
Firstly, the argument unfairly asserts that the people who lost job as the result of downsizig will not face serious economic hardship. Howeve, the arguer failed to provide us with any hard evidence or opinons from the people who had lost their job and how they feels when was laied off. Without these evidence the arguer can not convince me that these people won’t face serious economic hardship. The workers may find the job finally, but it may after long time waiting or that the job the worker found could not provide enough money for them to support the family. All these posibilities will make them experience serious economic hardship.
Secondly, the arguer cite a reports that since 1992 for more jobs have been created than have been eliminated.. However, even more jobs are created, it does not means the jobs are enough. It is highly possible that the population of the United States are increasing in are much more higher speed, the new jobs can not satisfied the growing population. If it is so, many people till have no jobs and will also experience economic hardship.
Moreover, the reports also demonstrate that many of those who lost their jobs have found new employment. Yet, it does not clarified the concrete proportion of the people who have found new employment, there may be still many people who could not find Also, the newly created job may not stable that time, people who just get the new job may be fired soon later.
What's more. It was reported that two-thirds of the newly created jobs have been in industries that tend to pay above-average wages, and the vast majority of thse jobs are full-time. However, the argument dose not tell us the exact money of the salaries. Maybe that the economic situation of the corporations are all not good andthe salaries of all the people are very low. Even the salaries are above the averege wages, the people is difficult to subsists. Even the vast majority of these job are full-time, it dose not mean that the wages are good, and a part-time job sometime can provide more mony. the arguer failed to provide us the attribution and the exact salary of these job.
In sum, this argument are ill-concieved. To strengthen it, the arguer need to provide us solid evidence about how people are feeling at that time , the exact number of new job and the people who cannot find the job and wheather the salaries are enough to cover their expends.
