It would be interesting to know how much the average income has increased, more than minimum wage, and the effect of inflation on other prices would also be useful.
I'm not saying that it would lead to a different conclusion, but just that it's data you can't ignore when comparing prices across a 20 years span.
- freehunter 13y agoIf you change "increased" to "decreased", you can find this info pretty easy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Median_US_household_income.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Median_US_household_income... If you're looking for personal income rather than household income, there's a graph for that as well. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6c/Historical_median_personal_income_by_education_attainment_in_the_US.png http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6c/Historical_med...
