Therefore, the quality of jobs created was lower than the quality of jobs lost. The other options are incorrect: A is incorrect because most of the jobs created were service-sector jobs rather than manufacturing. C is incorrect because while there were some improvements in health-care coverage, it was not a dramatic rise. D is also incorrect because the quantity of new jobs actually increased during this time period.
