Actually you’re the idiot. 50% of Americans make less than $31,800. Cooper, David; Elise, Gould (November 17, 2011). "New poverty measure highlights positive effect of government assistance". Epi.org. Retrieved October 14, 2017.

Adjusted for inflation Americans making 31,800 in 2011 would be making 47,500 now. Idk what the original point was but median income has stayed about the same over time
