Wages are now growing faster than inflation in the country so this isn't really accurate. The poorest have seen the largest wage growth even during the high inflation periods last year.
- alfalfasprout 3y agoThe poorest, sure. The majority of americans are still net losers in all of this. Keep in mind their wages were also stagnant for a long period of time.
- laidoffamazon 3y agoWagers were stagnant in the 2000s. Since 2015 real wages have been going up. Even today real wages are still higher than they were in 2018. You can argue about being below trends or whatever, fine. But it's factually wrong to say Americans are worse off today than they were in the past.
