Median Wages are growing
From Diana Furchtgott-Roth,
Median wages are not stagnating. They are rising and not just for the median family, poor families are also doing better. Adjusting for size and taking taxes and certain benefits into account, real median household income has risen by 34% over the past 20 years.
other incoming data show the same trends. Over the past 30 years, real average hourly compensation, a measure that includes wages and benefits, has risen by 41%. And real income per person has increased by 62%.
