From his remarks before the Economic Club of New York on 3/15/2012
So how does job growth compare to past recoveries?
His address is on CSPAN here.
How has the economy performed since that early start?
Since the summer of 2009, the economy has expanded at an average annual rate of 2.5 percent.
Over the last two years, the economy has added 3.9 million private sector jobs.
Growth has been very broad-based, with strength in agriculture, energy, manufacturing, services, and high tech.
