This is so false I can’t believe you’re posting it. Yes the amount of people making over 100k has grown since 1969 because inflation has eaten away how far that money goes. The top ten percent of earners today make >140k while the upper middle class is the top 10-20% (which includes those earning 100k.). Meanwhile the lowest earners as a class has definitely grown since 1969.

It cannot be stated enough that people who aren’t domain experts should not be using stats to push narratives because lots of nuance is lost when just numbers are shown.

Agreed, so its really important for everyone right now that you personally refrain from commenting further.

More narrative pushing from the Federal Reserve:

The only one that is clearly not familiar with this domain here is you.

Really? Where?

You've been caught outright lying and you have no address for it other than calling me the idiot?

Please, leave.

Are you high? I didn’t lie I literally called you out on either being very ignorant of what you’re posting or acting in bad faith. Lying and then calling the person who catches you a liar is sure as hell a tactic I suppose
