Did I say mandatory? I meant optional! You're "free" to die in a cardboard box under a freeway as a market capitalist scarecrow warning to the other ants so they keep showing up to make us more!

What's crazy is to calculate the average US income the census folks of the US government exclude billionaires because it would skew reality so much that people would call bullshit on the average with billionaires in the mix.
so they get to be excluded from the "average wage per family" calculations made and distributed by the government.
I think you're conflating average and mean. When it comes to income average is typically median, which does include billionaires but wouldn't skew the data due to their inclusion.
Average and mean are the same thing (sum of everything divided by total number of things). Median is the middle number.
Colloquially, average is the mean. Mathematically, average can be either mean, median, or mode.
No, that's just the arithmetic mean. There a other often more appropriate means that can be used. Arithmetic mean is just the one most commonly taught.
Could I see the numbers?
I've never heard that, would be wild if that's truly how they do it, I wonder what the average would be if they included the billionaire family's.
