The Middle Class Fared Better than You Think
We’ve all heard it said that the “rich are getting richer” while the middle class suffers. Political figures on both the right and left frequently speak about the need to “bring back” or “restore” the “disappearing” middle class. Pew Research Center just put out a report that calls those ideas into question, according to a recent Washington Post opinion piece. All U.S. income groups have typically made double-digit pretax income gains—Middle-income household income grew by 13% in the '70s, 11% in the '80s & 12% in the '90s. Lower-income households had gains of 13% in the '70s, 8% in the '80s & 15% in the '90s. The Washington Post piece opines that “We’ve mistaken what is plausibly a one-time setback—the response to the Great Recession—for long-term stagnation. People have understandably but wrongly taken their recent experience and projected it onto the past.” We cannot predict the future, but it certainly seems as though the middle class has fared better than many people believe.
