Great news: wage increases have outpaced inflation over the past five years. The result, as the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office shows, is that “for all income groups…the portion of household income required to purchase the same bundle of goods and services declined.” Increased purchasing power net of inflation ranges from 2 to 6.3%, but all income groups benefited.

An Update About How Inflation Has Affected Households at Different Income Levels Since 2019

CBO focused on households’ consumption of a bundle of typical goods and services from 2019 to compare purchasing power in 2019 with that in 2023. On average, purchasing power increased, but the effects of inflation varied by income group.

When I talked to Dinesh D'Souza about his ridiculous film "2000 Mules," he said that True the Vote had the evidence to back up his claims.

True the Vote just admitted in court that they have no such evidence. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/02/15/dsouza-2000-mules-repudiation/

A Georgia court demanded evidence central to the election fraud film’s claims. None was offered.

Yes. 100* YES
Can't believe I forgot that one.
There is no corporation that monetizes your content. There's likely a bunch of volunteers paying for cloud resources to get you online.
Let me pick a random number... why don't you give them SEVEN DOLLARS every month to keep your Mastodon instance running...
Still better than $8chan

I volunteer to write the next chapter of THE TWITTER FILES on how the decision was made to deactivate the accounts of a bunch of journalists that reported on Musk

Just send me all the internal communications.

My email is in my bio.

Here's the #inflation story you're expected to believe (advance warning: this story is entirely false): America gave the poors too much money during the lockdown and now the #economy is awash in #FreeMoney, which made those poors so rich that now they're refusing to work, which means the economy isn't making anything anymore. With all that extra money and all those missing workers, prices are skyrocketing.

I'm officially done with Twitter. I won't delete my account, hoping against hope the company can somehow shake MusQ, but I will not be participating.

Join me on Mastodon. @marklemley
