If you want, this is 89 pages long , but has some really interesting facts/stats/charts and you know how I like those!!

In 2011-real median income was 8.1% lower than 2007 and dropped 1.7% in one year-2011-2010. If you're feeling like money isn't going very far, this is why.

Annual household income-
Asian-65K (the highest and their kids always win the spelling bees!)
White-55K
Black-32K

Fulltime workers
male-58 million (down 5 million since 2007!)
female- 43 million (down 1.9 Million since 2007

In poverty
15% overall
22% of kids under 18 (this is sad)

Uninsured kids in 2011 (some interesting info in this chart)
By Race-
white-6.8%
black-10.2%
hispanic-15.1%

By birth
native born-8.8%
naturalized-12,5%
non citizen-29.2% ( see any problem here)
The interesting thing here was the future HUGE costs the U.S. is going to have with the hispanic/non citizen kids. How many more can we afford to pay for?

Last thing- Earnings chart only went to 200K. If you earn over that in 2011, you were in top 4.2%. There were a lot more charts and smaller breakdowns. I've read census survey info before, but this one is startling. For those that think "all is well", please read some of this info. Rich
