Almost every demographic group has seen incomes drop during the alleged
Obama recovery, Sentier found. Even those who report being continuously
employed watched their real incomes drop nearly 5% over the past three years.
A separate report last week from the Pew Research Center found that over
the past decade, the middle class has “shrunk in size, fallen backward in
income and wealth, and shed some … of its characteristic faith in the

Meanwhile, there are 800,000 more long-term unemployed than when the “
recovery” started, and the ranks of those who aren’t in the labor force at
all have swelled by nearly 8 million.
The unemployment rate remains stuck above 8%, and shows no sign of
coming down any time soon. And the dreaded misery index — which combines
inflation and unemployment — is 20% higher than it was three years ago.
