What's median wage have to do with minimum wage and those below the median. Those below the median are the ones getting squeezed and not keeping up in the economy. Middle class folks have 8 yr car notes for $80k cars that used to be 5yrs and 50k a few years ago. Higher Ed & other things are up up

A new car is an insane luxury. The median car buyer buys used

Yet your median used car buyer faces skyrocketing used car prices in 2025 also 🙁 Nothing is flat or getting cheaper for those with stagnant wages over last number of years. Even veggies and meat are inflating faster than wages www.consumeraffairs.com/news/used-ca...

Yea I can get violent towards asshole deflective behavior. That's you. I bring up car prices and you say not new but used. So I cite info about used cards and then you defect off to some B.S. You sound mad I kept sending info for you to look at. So you just skippee if for personal attack. F off then

You're the deflector. Wages for the lowest wage earners haven't went up along with prices. That's the whole point the other person started with and you came in with some violent disagreements on median this and median that. F the median if folks below that are falling behind-you conveniently ignore🤷🏾‍♀️

That’s not true! Wages for for lowest quartile have risen consistently as well, and the number of of people earning federal minimum has consistent decreased.

The number of people earning federal min has decreased? No isht Sherlock since more and more states have increased their minimum wage while the federal wage hasn't moved off $7.25 for decades.
