Better Living Locally

Despite Inflation

A study completed by the Tax Foundation shows just how much more income a family must have these days to stay even with where it was in 1956 If its earning capacity was $3,000 at that time, it needs $3,655 now -- 21.8 percent more — to maintain its way of life. The $5,000-a-year family of other days must receive $5,894, or 17.9 percent more to equalize.
