| data_cut | see vignette for a list of the cut |
|---|---|
| year_start | start year for which we want data |
| year_end | end year for which we want data |
| industry | download naics or sic data |
| frequency | download the quarterly files or the yearly files (default is quarterly) |
| path_data | where do we store the data |
| subdir | do we create a random dir |
| download | if empty do download the file from the BLS website, if not use a local version with download as path |
| url_wayback | allows to specify the path in internet wayback machine that kept some of the archive |

data.table aggregate
downloads data from the Quarterly Census for Employment and Wages program, for desired years, splitting data by the aggregation level codes and exporting them into separate files sorted by year and aggregation level
: we intend to have a single file for each aggregation level, but it is more convenient to merge the individual files using an external command line tool like cat Other code: loads data.table with option to write it for a given cut
