<p style="margin-left:75px;font-family:georgia, 'times new roman', times, serif;color:rgb(51,51,51);">The median household’s income in 2015 was $56,500, up 5.2 percent from the previous year — the largest single-year increase since record-keeping began in 1967, the Census Bureau said on Tuesday. The share of Americans living in poverty also posted the sharpest decline in decades.

<p style="margin-left:75px;font-family:georgia, 'times new roman', times, serif;color:rgb(51,51,51);">The gains were an important milestone for the economic expansion that began in 2009. For the first time in recent years, the benefits of renewed prosperity are spreading broadly. And the data was released into a heated presidential race, where Democrats seized on them to promote Hillary Clinton’s candidacy and undercut Donald J. Trump’s dark assessment of the nation’s well-being.

The economic recovery, however, remains incomplete. The median household income was still 1.6 percent lower than in 2007, adjusting for inflation.
 

So after eight years and over ten trillion dollars in stimulus spending that our descendants are stuck with, we're almost back to where we were before Obama.

 

What a superstar!
