Hey purple I had a hard time following your post. Was that job creation percentage or gdp percentage??? I have to quibble a little bit about declaring job growth above what it takes to get to less than 5% as indicative of GDP growth.

I don't believe the gdp percentage is correct, job percentage, I'm not so sure it's an apples to apples deal since ~5% was pretty much historically declared full employment.
