What makes you average American ?

What makes you average American ?

To land in the middle quintile – where you are richer  than 2 out of 5 households but poorer than 2 out 5 households – requires  an income of between $34,738 and $55,330. 

That – and that only – is the average American family. 

You are only “average” if you have pre-tax income of between  $2,894.83 and $4,335.75 per month.

Anything below this and you are below average. 

Anything above this and you are above average.

Government is extreme.

The U.S. government is really spying on American  citizens.
