Since 1990 the median annual income in the US has risen 12% while the median home price has risen 268% in that same time. Assuming 2% annual inflation over that time, if median annual income were to keep up with inflation, it should be 96k annually. However, the median annual income is only 56k, meaning the government has stolen 41% of your purchasing power through inflation in the last 33 years. #bitcoin is the only way out.
