But the graphs!!!

WHAT IS A MAN?!?!?

Yeah, why do you think the billionaires are funding it?

If debt has grown, wages have grown, but debt being paid hasn't then that means people don't have enough disposable income to pay their debt down, which means COL has outpaced wages. You understand this, right?

You understand why that's still bad, right

You look at the non self reported data

What does the graph show if not that less debt is being paid than pre pandemic levels

So in your opinion, it's a good thing that debt has not stopped increasing AND it's being paid down less?

Vince McMahon brainrot

Yeah, that's why I used information from sources not from the federal government

It's lower than pre pandemic levels lmaoooo you can't be seriously saying this supports your point

It's simply because both bookers can't book faces for shit

This isn't self reported lmao

Maybe use actual data. Self reported information isn't actual data

Yeah man I'm sure not being able to pay down debt is the sign of a strong middle class and high wages

Exceptionally fucking stupid idea

That's so sick lmao

Circling back on this

This so the official party stance on this topic and it's unironically further right than Reagan was

Conveniently leaves out the data

It's funny how the objective, non self reported numbers, tell a very different story to the one you're pushing.

Bro thinks credit card debt is self reported and not reported by the credit card companies to the federal reserve. If you don't know what you're talking about then stop talking

No it's "we have objective data that proves this wrong"

Literally credit card companies and the federal reserve lmao

Did you graduate high school?

I'm sure it's completely unrelated that credit card debt was increasing the entire timeframe you're referring to. It's almost like the objective numbers don't agree with your narrative and Americans are too embarrassed to admit they're poor

People are aware of their objective material conditions but will lie when asked because that's how self reporting works. That's why any study that involves self reporting is thrown out

Yes. Self reporting is not an actual study.

It's weird how when people self report the numbers are high but when the numbers are studied by an independent observer it shows how bad things actually are. It's almost like Americans are conditioned to be embarrassed to admit they're poor or something

It's not in conflict to point out that self reported information is faulty and that all actual studies point to severely poor material conditions for Americans
