One thing that bothers me is why job creation hasn't started up again. Only reason I could come up with is that companies don't need more employees, they manage with what they have. I'm guessing that productivity is increasing.

Productivity is definitely decreasing (dropping morale, etc) but then so is demand! When there is less money to go around, there is way less demand.
