    Those charts were for the article. And no. That’s not how statistics works. These aren’t special interest sites, one stat does not over rule another stat. You use the right stat for the right thing. You cannot say the working class is doing better while the production and nonsupervisory pay numbers and Census median income numbers don’t support that.

    And yeah I missed that, EO. That’s great. To be fair I’m also remembering he nearly got a federal 15 minimum but for Kyrsten Sinema.

      I want to try an experiment

      Can you summarize my argument back to me? Like what I was saying and what sources I drew on to support it and how? There was one central thesis, and I supported that thesis from one of my sources and from both of yours. I’m gonna give you from 1-5 stars depending on how accurately you describe it. You don’t have to agree with it or how I justified it, just show that you understood what I was saying.
