@matthewstoller @NathanTankus impossible to get a larger % increase for the sum than for both of the components.
The reporting on the census is off. No it's not a 5% raise, that's per household. It's a 1.5% raise for men and 2.7% raise for women.

@pio_trek_g not true. household can include more than husband and wife.@matthewstoller -
@NathanTankus@matthewstoller third sex? -
@pio_trek_g you understand households can have more than two people right?@matthewstoller -
@NathanTankus@matthewstoller share of income from men + women = 1. Independent of number of earners. -
@pio_trek_g sigh. households aren't 1 man+ 1 woman. also median household isn't median man+median woman. 1/2@matthewstoller -
@NathanTankus@matthewstoller sigh, share of income from men x, women 1-x. If income men up y%, women z%, then households' xy+(1-x)z. -
@pio_trek_g I don't know how else to explain to you what a household is and what unearned income is. - Show more

@matthewstoller that's what I was thinking. Also, at all about: More kids living in basement now working? -
@matthewstoller That's full-time, full-year employed. Need to consider effects of shifts among part-time employed on HH numbers.
