to maintain the employment rate, our economy needs to create 125,000-150,000 jobs per month

Then Obama needs to create 6 million to 7.2 million jobs during his first term. Yet he's only promising to "create or save" only half that. And "creating or saving" jobs isn't the same as "creating" jobs. He's not even promising to "create" any. Tsk tsk.

Also during this time, the top 1% increased their wages substantially, while the bottom 99% saw their real wages after inflation decrease.

There ya go with the class envy again. And forget the top 1%, I don't believe "the bottom 99% saw their real wages after inflation decrease". That would mean the country as a whole became poorer and it didn't.
