It’s too uneven. Personally our household is doing better because both kids are working and the company I work for ditched plans to go public, and a couple of other factors. But:

Car insurance increased sharply (probably counted as money coming into the economy)

Homeowners insurance increased

Food prices increased.

Wages don’t increase as much as household costs. Until the wages of everyday people are growing faster than their expenses, they aren’t doing better. Again, personally we are, but I don’t think that can be extrapolated out, most households don’t have an opportunity to deploy more people to work.
