I am looking for a source that can tell me how much a typical American workers of various classes made historically compared to today in terms of how they live? I guess that is inflation adjusted wages over time but I am not sure if that even gets at the complete picture.
What percent of an average American’s salary now and historically is/was spent today on food? housing? education? entertainment? healthcare? How much free time does the average American have today compared to historic norms and how much education?
Thanks.
