- Are you better off than you were four years ago? The
- ECONOMIC POLICY INSTITUTE, a liberal Washington think tank, will
- soon release a detailed analysis of recent census data, and the
- Democrats can't wait to trumpet the economic findings. For the
- first time in postwar history, average wages and benefits have
- declined for four years straight, says the institute. Perhaps
- worse: wages of college-educated Americans, women and
- white-collar workers -- whose votes are crucial -- have been
- declining. Assuming Americans vote their pocketbooks, Democrats
- stand to gain.
