    I’m talking about the link where it talks about wages being stagnant.

    It’s only stagnant peak to peak. They have been going up since the bottom of 1980s where wages did not keep up with inflation. This is basically the last 30 years when wages actually did go up.

    It’s trying to make it seem like there was no change, when actually they only had it good for a few years in the 1970s and are still better off now

      Again, seems to me like people were better off when houses and rent were affordable. i.e. before now.

        That’s a separate issue that I agree on, but the problem is with cities like New York and SF refusing to build enough housing. It’s not so expensive in places that do build
