But averages don’t tell the full story: Middle-income and lower-income Americans’ wages stopped outpacing inflation last year, according to Bank of America.

As if the first go around wasn’t telling enough. But, hey, at least the plutocracy has another tax cut that they bought and paid for.

      Did you not read the first sentence in my post?

        I’m confused. I said something dumb I guess, then admitted it. Which first sentence did I miss?

            What the hell? I’m trying to be personable here. I don’t get what you’re irritated about. I said something dumb. You explained and got me squared away. I said that I understood better now and what my misunderstanding was. Then you’re just unnecessarily hostile. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
