September 17, 2024 ~ Lucy Ann Lance talks with Mike Wilkinson, Reporter / Data Analysis, Bridge Michigan. They discuss the challenges faced by Michigan households due to a 3% decrease in income, primarily attributed to the state’s reliance on manufacturing and exacerbated by high inflation rates, which peaked at over 9% in mid-2022. This situation has disproportionately affected median families despite gains for higher-income households, and Social Security benefits have not kept pace with rising costs. The broader context includes similar economic pressures in other countries and U.S. political debates on how to address these issues.
