I bet it's real wages are up even with "core" CPI calculated inflation -- the "official" inflation gage that excludes the prices of most real world needs like food, gas, and housing costs.

I also wouldn't be surprised with our aging population making more just from aging into more experience. For example, I made more at the age of 50 than I did at the age of 40, which was higher than at 30, etc. So as yesterday's teenagers get a little more experience they make a little more per hour in their early 20's --- just like I and everybody else did.

Well...I work in a small Hosp. I actually got a COVID bonus and a very nice raise a few months ago.

“in the past year”

And therein lies the lie.

Didn’t “earn” any more and sure as HELL spent a whole lot more. What a load. Guess our democommie pals must be getting subsidized because the one we know don’t seem to have a problem.

So “only” 40 percent of Americans saw real wages decline. Liberals of course call this good news. All hail Bidenomics.

If someone who was doing ok under Trump but is now struggling to exist paycheck to paycheck, and who then believes what these leftist rags are spouting and goes on to vote for Biden in November — well, that person is beyond saving.

Note that Real Wages are on a DOWNWARD trajectory for the whole Biden Administration.
