What is the net of jobs created and lost vs population growth? What is the growth (or loss) of real income in this same period?

I've done my part posting this detailed article and in the past I have posted data on real income (which I recall has been rising in a straight line under both Clinton and Bush).

Why don't you use google to look up the answers to your questions and share them with the group. There are clues to your question about population growth right there in the article when it says:

the percentage of working age Americans in the labor force has fallen from an all-time high of 67.3% to 66.0% today. If this seems worrisome, it isn't. The average labor force participation rate for the post-World War II period is 63%--well below today's rate.

Did you read it?
