Article says median household income has risen
less than 15% since 1980 (and blames this on reagan). of course median household income dropped from 1980 to 1981 (carter’s last year in office), and median household income was up approximately 25% from 1967 to 2008. typically misleading statistics that don’t give you any idea of how fast median household income was growing before reagan took office. from the graph, it looks the yearly percentage increases in median household income actually increased after reagan took office.
