    Are you being ironic or just didn’t read the report saying it either decreased or didn’t change?

      From February 2023 to February 2024, real average hourly earnings increased 1.4 percent, seasonally adjusted.

      It didn’t change much from a month ago, but since 2019 we’ve made progress

      Earnings up 2.8 percent since 2019

        How does this purchasing power increase compare with rent increases and price of groceries and gas?

          This is real earnings, which means it’s a 2.8% increase above the increase off those costs

              This is actually pretty nice then especially since the figures report the biggest increase occurs in the 25th percentile.

              I am curious to see how this stacks up compared to historical periods

          This is real earnings, inflation could be 1000%

          It’s the increase in earnings above inflation

              You can believe right wing propaganda on TikTok, or real data by government agencies

              The choice is yours
