Replying to @Markzandi
Is that extra $700/month a mean or a median?
Also in the replies from @David_Charts:
Hourly wage gains have exceeded inflation vs. pre-pandemic:
+20.5% wages of prod & non-supv workers
+17.4% inflation (CPI-All)
+15.5% inflation (CPI-Core, ex food & energy)
Yes, workers have more purchasing power now than in the vaunted 2019 economy.
