Getting downvoted here, but see the non-partisan IGM economic survey on this.
"The 9% cumulative increase in real US median household income since 1980 substantially understates how much better off people in the median American household are now economically, compared with 35 years ago."
When asked to agree-disagree, 60% of economists (70% when you weight by confidence) agree with this.
