Figure 1 is facsinating - it shows the 80s were awful for everyone, especially the bottom 10%. Male workers dropped 16.3% from 1979-1990, and Hispanic dropped 20.9%!

2010-2019 was the best real income growth for all groups apart from top 10% hispanics, and the growth is fairly evenly spread across demographics.
