Identification Friend or Foe.
You've surely heard it in movies. System that keeps planes from getting shot down, particularly when transitioning between nations. Also now a system to prevent friendly fire. IIRC it's also used in video games.

Paul Ryan: Secretary Getting $1.50 More A Week Shows Effect Of GOP Tax Cuts
House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) really wants you to know how great the Republican tax cuts are.

Worried that the partisan Nunes memo released Friday will undermine the FBI’s ability to do its job? Ryan is happy to remind you, ”The tax cuts are working.”

On Saturday, Ryan outdid himself again with a tweet bragging about the extra $1.50 a week that a Pennsylvania secretary is making thanks to the GOP legislation.

Yep. Just as much bullshit as anybody saying the economy or job outlook improved for anyone for 8 years under Obama.

Same lies, different "side".

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Well Shazaam! That must be why he was reelected in a landslide, which Democraps have never seen with their party.
Perhaps you could provide a reliable, credible news source, instead of hanging your hat on The Libtard's Gospel.

I am unable to navigate that wid database.
Can you tell me the numbers they use for 1981, 1982, 1983 - the end of the devastating Carter Economy?
Six, could you help getting those numbers?

I tried to poke around that WID site, never found any page, report, data grid which showed the numbers that the NYT Libtard (I know, redundant) spouted. Perhaps he just made them up, holding to the high journalistic standards of the Times. Or maybe somebody could find a report from that site with those numbers present, and post a link for that specific page.

Otherwise, I did get a report from that site, for pre-tax income, bottom 50% of earners, in 2016 constant $.
It shows 1980 as $11,502. And 1988 as $12,504.
That right there suggests that not only did the Times just make stuff up, they also lied in the most dishonest and biased way, stating the opposite of what the data shows.
That looks like approximately 9% increase in annual income from 1980 to 1988, an 8 year span, or about 1% per year.

But more pertinently, the data which was avoided shows a fuller picture.
In 1981 it was $11,518.
In 1982 it was $10,888.
1983: $10,839.
1984: $11,453.
1985: $11,693.
1986: $11,762.
1987: $12,094.

First, Reagan had to stop and reverse the runaway downward spiral of the disastrous Carter Economy. That bottomed in 1983, with a loss of about $700 since 1980, or about 6% in 3 years - which is 2% average loss per year.
Then Reagan grew it, an increase of about $1,700 or about 15% in a span of 5 years, or about 3% each year.

Yet again, Libtard Delusions bow to the reality of real numbers.

bumpity.
And reminder to extract some WID links.

Actually, I'm surprised they didn't go for a two-fer here and claim this as evidence that they were closing the fictional Gender Wage Gap.

That linky went dead, they must have been too embarrassed at their blatent lies.

And that WID site is cumbersome at best to utilize, plus their data seems to change from one visit to another.

Cannot find ANY of those previously notated figures there now. Not the figures I posted above, nor the figures from the lying story which was linked.
