      To point out the obvious, on any curve there are going to be people above/in front of the curve, and below/behind the curve. In the case of wage growth versus inflation, more people are currently beating inflation in their wage growth than there are people lagging. That’s the way statistics works; if nine out of ten people are beating inflation, then yeah, there’s going to be one guy that isn’t. Just like even when there’s record levels of employment, there are always going to be some people that just can’t seem to find a job.

      You are behind the curve in at least two different ways.

        This is shitty messaging, and it’s all democrats know how to do.

        Ordering people to be happy when they have no reason to be and then being an insulting prick about it when they don’t immediately comply is a garbage way to behave.
