The median worker saw a small wage growth, on the scale of ~.5% a year.
However, it does says that 58% of all workers failed to keep up with the real wage growth trend we saw in the years leading up to the pandemic.
>So 63% didn't.
But more than a third of Americans did. You can't "glass two-thirds full" tens of millions of people seeing their actual purchasing power decrease.
I feel like people are blind to the obvious. The price of everything has gone up and it has outpaced most people’s wages.
You can't glass one third empty it either. It's complicated and needs more numbers.
