Sharp and sustained economic criticism from Biden's ostensible allies established a narrative of failure that has proved alarmingly resistant to reality.
I’m not sure this is the best metric, since someone who’s able to make it when before they couldn’t make it at all, is much better than someone at the top just having more disposable income now. The OP article goes into some metrics like wage disparity and unemployment that touch more directly on economic survival as opposed to wealth at the top. But if you want to see disposable income then sure. The little divot followed by resumption of the upward line after the Covid chaos is what OP’s article is talking about: Biden recovering the economy from Covid almost as if it hadn’t happened, which most first world countries haven’t been able to do.

Thanks for the graph. Shame it’s not broken down by age.
And this also looks like an average not the median.
