Yes, you are better off now than you were then.

There is a robust economy with a soft land, inflation at 2.5%, UE at 4.2%, so forth. jotathought, stop delaying and go get the retraining.
Let's not forget that inflation rates are down, while the compounded damage and outcomes of the recent record-high inflation are still being felt.
 
What do you think Kamala means when she says, "Equitable outcomes?"

CEO pay went up 1322%. Workers pay went up 18%. How about CEO pay only goes up half of that and our number doubles? Would you be okay with that?

Why would you double the pay of all employees who may either not have the skills, know-how, merit and/or not be qualified for a role? Which is probably a very large share of the employee work force. You'd pay burger flippers in California $40 / hour for an unskilled job? LOL
 
Wait until AI and UBI dominate the workplace.

I didn't say double their pay stupid. Their pay has only gone up 18% in 40 years. It should have went up 36%. NO ONE said double their pay.

So now you can respond intelligently because you just misunderstood.

CEO pay however has gone up 1322% in that same time. I said their pay should have only gone up 661%/ Would that have been so bad?

And in those years, labor lost it's seat at the table. Union membership went from 35% of our work force to 5%. No coincidence our pay only went up 18% in that time and CEO pay went up so much. Wake up.
 
Lol, servers would disagree with you. People don't have the extra income they had. So they don't eat out as much or don't have the money to tip better.
But there are those less fortunate than servers.
 
Most working Americans are better off now than they were when the reign of Trumpery ended with a dismal 34% public approval.


According to my organization’s analysis, working-class Americans’ wages, adjusted for inflation, have just edged higher than they were on Election Day, 2020. The average working-class American can now answer “Yes” to the question, “Are you better off now than you were under Trump?”

Nope.

You are not better off.

You may be in a better position to get there. But you got a lot of catching up to do.

Sorry to spoil your orgasm.

If you don't like the empirical data, that is unfortunate.
