What I am trying to get at is there are so many struggling households and people appear never to have been working harder. People are working multiple jobs as well. It is important not to take low unemployment as people being better off in the economy.
I turn to housing because Dr. McQuinn's opening statement outlined how inflation is being driven by housing. Will the witnesses elaborate on the way housing is driving inflation and the effect that has on household income and the wider economy?
