  > I very much doubt that every American makes 9k per month. We know they don't[1]: > For the year 2022, the U.S. Census Bureau estimates that the median annual earnings for all workers (people aged 15 and over with earnings) was $47,960; and more specifically estimates that median annual earnings for those who worked full-time, year round, was $60,070. The upthread's figure is $/mo; the higher (full-time) figure there is $5005/mo. $9k/mo is within top 20%'tile. Every trying to read the statement as "most Americans" doesn't work.
