If this is the case, its because income growth has been so pathetic the last 7 years.
Oh, yeah. And pigs fly!
So did prices and expenses.
This is meaningless.
I can’t find comparable *disposable* income statistics anywhere LOL!
Making more but having less is not a good thing.
Who believes the Washington Post?
Color me jaded, but I don’t believe a f’n word of this.
What a coincidence. This appears just as the Hillabeast’s laughable health conditions are finally being exposed.
Not buying it, WaPo.
By next month, these phony numbers wi be 25% higher...for the lucky 62% who are are working in the feeble Obama economy. The 92.000,000 not
working have “quit looking for work” according to the Liars Dept., formerly the Labor Dept.
Wow! Let me check my W-2.
Oh, wait. I forgot. I’m unemployed.
More of these “Best Economy Ever!” as the election nears.
such obviously propagandaBS it puts Soviet Pravda to shame!
Must be that $2,500.00 EACH of us is keeping thanks to 0bamacare!
*SPIT*
Eight months into 2016, now this report comes out.
Sure thing, what a crock of #$@!
Anything to get the Terminally Illery across the finish line.
BS.....................
The Ministry of Propaganda goes into high gear for the election - the median is the average - what this really reflects is the growing “income inequality” which progressives ordinarily condemn under other circumstances - the very large increase in income encountered by all those with money in the stock market, especially at higher earning levels, resulting from the market bubble in turn brought on by artificially low interest rates - the really great thing is that when the market crashes finally in a year or two and that average income goes down, the lefties will be able to blame it on the then current president and Obama can have totally clean hands.....
Here we go, spectacular economic news right before the election.
Lie
Obama reports income as “savings”. If he declares ObamaCare saved $2,500, and it didn’t, he then adds that to income.
Obama is as delusional as Kim Jong Ill, who declared he shot multiple holes in one in every golf game.
OK, show of hands: who got a 5.2% or greater raise last year without a promotion?
Of course, the $3000 bump could just be someone adding a part-time minimum wage job to the household income, since those are the majority of Obama’s “job growth”.
We know the median income in this country is now less than $30,000. We’ve added over 500,000 waitresses and bartenders and have lost manufacturing jobs under this regime. Retail stores continue to drop like flies.
This number is a total outlier which makes no sense. Must be an election coming up or something.
Next week when nobody is looking the numbers will be revised downward, as they always are.
