That is categorically false and it's dishonest to suggest so.
GDP is at the highest rate in years. We are at full employment. Participation rate is the highest it's been in 50 years. Wages outpaced inflation while inflation was crazy high helping debtors and the working class at the same time.
Your ideology blinds you.
Do you have a source on “wages outpac[ing] inflation”?
Most people get confused because inflation is already accounted for in most reported numbers.
