I love an opinion piece that commences by addressing problematic policies of the last 5 years, but uses a graph illustration from 1983 for its statistics.

You can't make this stuff up.

things are going well...the govt told me so

You have to read it pretty closely to follow.

By now it is a well-known fact that the Fed's monetary policies over the past 5 years (and really ever since Greenspan unleashed the Great Moderation) have been very successful at one thing: transferring wealth from the US (and global) middle class and handing it over to the already wealthiest strata of society

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_moderation

In economics, the Great Moderation refers to a reduction in the volatility of business cycle fluctuations starting in the mid-1980s, believed to have been caused by institutional and structural changes in developed nations in the later part of the twentieth century.^[1] Sometime during the mid-1980s major economic variables such as real gross domestic product growth, industrial production, monthly payroll employment and the unemployment rate began to decline in volatility.^[2]

If you weren't so ready to dismiss anything that I post you might actually learn something. 

Haha.

It has nothing to do with you. It is the article. It starts by suggesting that recent (last four years) policies have created this situation, but uses a bar graph for the last 30 years to show the changes.

The argument presented may very well have merit but the methodology that it employs is comical.
