Are you better off now than you were 8 years ago?

This country was on the fucking ropes when Obama took over: an economy in tatters and two foreign wars. He's gotten us out of the two wars, and has been resolute in not involving us in a third, and has gotten us out of the Great Recession. And now this. The first annual gain since before he took office, the largest gain in this statistic's history, 50 years. This is literally a money-in-your-pocket stat: you now have 5.2% more of that than in 2015.
