An interesting spin that this post puts on it.
And you were told a lie. latest data out shows wages increased 4.2 % in 2018 and are up another 5% in 2019 to date. Recall the media stories of people who claimed the 2017 tax act cost them money because they didn't get as much back when they filed their tax return as they did before. Never occurred to them that they didn't pay as much in tax to begin with. The media is complicit in the dumbing down of America.
