Yeah it's not good and gas being up a ton while the government jewishly plays with numbers to tell us "akshually the inflation rate is very small" because they factor in new tech trinkets being available for the same price as previous versions to be deflationary.

right wing propaganda relies heavily on painting the progressive west as a failed state (especially areas like california, new york, etc)
also relies heavily on painting border states as warzones due to immigration 'invaders' along with rapidly declining material conditions
its a grift for low effort votes

But nobody actually earns min-wage, so here are some Stats what people were actually earning.

>Data for production workers / nonsupervisory employees in various industries
>Total, gross hourly earnings (1974) by Industry:
>Manufracturing: $4.41/hour
>Mining: $5.21/hour
>Contract construction: $6.75/hour
>Transportation and public utilities: $5.43/hour
>Wholesale trade: $4.49/hour

Using the previous metric we can calculate what those people should be earning today:
>Manufracturing: $58.06/hour
>Mining: $68.59/hour
>Contract construction: $88.86/hour
>Transportation and public utilities: $71.49/hour
>Wholesale trade: $59.11/hour

Keep in mind we are talking about NON-SUPERVISORY employees here, e.g. for Construction sites it's the Mexican worker-grunts, not the guy giving orders.
So tell me, can some random lad who didn't even finish his highschool diploma go to a random construction site, give the Boss-man a firm handshake and start working the next day for $88.86/hour?
No? Because that was the reality boomers were living in 1974.

becuase its a lie. All americans are born into slavery to a group of jews whoccontrol the us government, "law", media, and the central bank.

because boomers are rich misers.

genx has lived a life of relentless trauma economic and death

millenials are a lost generation to pharma

genz is destroyed by criminal and nigger culture created by the central bank

newones are born into the era of homeless corporate foreign occupied government.

both republicans and democrats are controlled by raging anti-American foreign invading forces using the borders as an invasion without defense,

biden is a criminal, trump is a criminal, every president since 1910 was a criminal

America and its founding race was taken over by jewish organized crime just like rome long ago

It's not THOUGH.
It's cherry-picking manufacturing wagie jobs against the aspect of cost-of-living that's most increased over time. It's as misleading as comparing SWE salaries in 1974 and 2023 against the cost of TVs and concluding everything is extremely cheap now.

You need to look at the overall picture of pay and cost of living.
