Biden promotes economics for nation's middle class

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Vice President Joe Biden says the August jobs report, which underwhelmed many economists, is another step forward in the nation's economic recovery.<br /> <br /> The economy generated only 142,000 jobs, the fewest in eight months.<br /> <br /> In the weekly White House radio and Internet address, Biden says job growth continues but warns that the wages of middle-class Americans are being left behind other indicators of economic growth.<br /> <br /> Biden says it's long past time to, quote, "cut the middle class back into the deal."<br /> <br /> He says doing that requires a fair tax structure that values paychecks as much as unearned income and inherited wealth.<br /> <br /> In the Republican address, the GOP candidate for Senate in Alaska, Dan Sullivan, says the federal government is an obstacle to progress in his state - and calls that a national problem, too.
