The median income fell in 2010 for the second year in a row to
$26,364, a 1.2 percent drop from 2009, and the lowest level since
1999, according to David Cay Johnston at Reuters.


Median income, add part timers, retirees, disabled, unemployed, welfare
it goes down big time fast.

Question is do they also include people not seeking work? They might,
especially from a fleabagger rag that liberally discards such relevant
