The linked NYT article asserts that the magic train has "the promise of
creating tens — even hundreds — of thousands of jobs."
If so, then according to the latest statewide figures from the federal
Bureau of Labor Statistics, the train will provide California with more
jobs than are currently available to everyone employed in California's
"Farming, Fishing, and Forestry Occupations" combined.
More than all of the "Truck Drivers, Light or Delivery Services," and
more than all of the "Truck Drivers, Heavy and Tractor-Trailer" --
indeed, almost as many as both of those categories combined. ¡Este tren
es muy potente y mágico!
It will create more jobs than all of California presently has "Customer
Service Representatives," and more than all of its "Bookkeeping,
Accounting, and Auditing Clerks."
The magic train will create more than twice as many jobs as California
currently has carpenters. In fact, on a permanent basis, it will provide
almost one-third as many jobs as presently exist in the entire state's
entire construction industry. We know this to be true, because we read
it in the nation's Newspaper of Record.
The magic train will create seven new jobs for every lawyer who
currently works in California, if we believe the NYT. And you can't
swing a dead cat in California without hitting one lawyer (and another
offering to defend you against his lawsuit).
What's California world-famous for? Hollywood. Well, this train will be
so magic that it will create almost as many new jobs as are currently
employed in all of California's "Arts, Design, Entertainment, Sports,
and Media Occupations" put together.
