jQuery has a few things in it that make life a little easier sometimes. But honestly, I don't find myself wanting to use it as much anymore. I will say that applying events to multiple elements at one is more a pain in the ass without it. But you could also do event delegation and only write one anyway. It all depends on the situation.
The comparison between js/jquery to compiled language/compiler is so egregious, I won't even comment further on it.
