"When Statistical Measures Fail to Capture Reality"

That works both ways. Some of the statistics suggest no real increase in median wages in decades, but consumption, even net of debt continues to increase.

Its good to try to get the best statistics we can get, and to address flaws where we find them, but economic statistics are never going to be 100% accurate and relevant.
