    That dip is in employment due to COVID. You need a different chart that compares income adjusted for stimulus payments. Im about to get out of work but Ill try to source one for you if I remember.

    You aren’t wrong that’s just the wrong chart.

      Yes, I know what it was due to. That doesn’t change the fact that is literally the opposite of significant gains.

        Plus that graph is pretty much the same when Trump supporters talk about him securing our borders from illegal immigrants. Pretty much every country restricted border crossings at the start of Covid so yeah it was way harder for people to move around.

        The Biden administration didn’t increase the amount of illegal immigration, it just returned to the line it had been on before Covid.
