    You’re reinforcing my point. The economy has improved for people who were already well off. The people on the low side are getting pinched even harder.

      No, I’m not. You have no idea what our finances looked like just a year ago, but it’s clear you also don’t care. You’ve decided you only want evidence that agrees with you.

          The statistics of this very article are the evidence. It’s right there in black and white!

          A majority of Americans say that their own personal finances are doing well, and even when the question is expanded to their whole state, voters say the economy has improved.

          You countered by dismissing it, so I met you where you wanted to be. But even that wasn’t enough to dig you out of your preconceived belief. Carry on with your circle jerk.
