"Ohio families are poorer" fact check is not accurate. You calculate in the wages that are up by less than 30% but don't calculate in that the price of rent, gas, food is up by way more than 30%. Our income may be up, but everything else is up by way more. My apartment used to be $425 a month and is now $1000 a month, more than double. My pay went up from $10/hr to $14. That's not proportional at all. So, yes, we are poorer than we were 4 years ago.
