Unless you lived in a box, jobless and refused to put any money into the stock market these past 4 years before corona, this is total bs.
With homeless shelters and the way the job market was, both of the prereqs were also optional.
In other words, you had to deliberately ignore every possibility to get ahead, to not have benefited from the fantastic economy we had.
nope
graph annotated by me so you can see how the lower classes have less share of the wealth over the last 30 years. as of today, 90% of the people own 30% of the wealth while the top 10% own 70% of the wealth
what all these graphs show is that purchasing power has stagnated while the costs of the things that people purchase have gone up. there is no reason for wages to have stagnated, given that the usa's gdp is bigger than ever and productivity is bigger than ever. i wonder where all the extra money is going?????????? (here's a hint for the people who would love to be sat on by Annoying Orange and who also are named master matthew: the upper classes, not the average person)
studies have found that most americans live paycheck to paycheck, meaning they physically have no money to gamble in the stock market:

You're also conveniently ignoring how many Americans Covid forgeted.
to build on that point: idgaf if it was china's fault, or if it was the dem's fault, or whoever's loving fault it is. the government has done jack loving stuff to help the american people out of the jam that they're in. the only stimulus check they got was for $1200 and it was a one time thing. meanwhile, the rich have added billions of dollars to their wealth, in a not very surprising copy of the great recession bailout the government did.
in summary:
please stop sucking off the rich you loving idiot
