i grew up in abject poverty and foster care, and have many years of economic policy expertise. YOU don't "get" that they had more wiggle room in their budgets than at any time prior to mid-2018 and that it went back UP by the end of biden's term. AND that the USA is one of the best places to be poor

LOL, i showed you data that the graph went UP during the specific time you mentioned.
AND i pointed out that your initial argument had NOTHING TO DO with that specific time frame, thus showing it going several decades prior was totally relevant.
you are an idiot.

2. your comment wasn't specific to 2021 to 2024. you claimed people coudn't "afford their groceries", which is hysterical nonsense. they could afford MORE than at any time prior to mid-2018.
i'm not "whining", i'm calling you a willfully ignorant moron.

wow! you really are mathematically challenged. here's the yellow trend line again, moron.

here I'll help you interpret the graph since you're visually challenged.

2. of course, any economic conditions are going to fluctuate over time. not consistently go up you moron. but the trend is up! even that dip just 79,500 in 2022 was higher than at any point prior to mid 2018.

1. no, it doesn't.
the first derivative (SLOPE) decreases, but it still keeps going up not down.
