No. You are wrong. In your continuing quest to try to prove the white supremacy to which you hold, you continue to show complete ignorance of so much and repeatedly refuse to be corrected on so much.
When the set of numbers is odd, the median and all the numbers less than the median can go down, and that determines the new median - all the numbers greater than the median of this set can go up by any amount and the median of the new set will not change at all. When the set of numbers is even, the number immediately greater than the median, the median, and all the numbers less than the median can go down, and that determines the new median - all the numbers greater than the number immediately greater than the median of this set can go up by any amount and the median of the new set will not change at all.
You really need to learn some things that until now you refuse to learn. Go to the Google search engine and enter "median".

No, it is not. Here your ignorance that you seem to be incapable of correcting is in how GDP is calculated. You keep thinking wrongly - never mind how many times I tell you otherwise - that GDP involves only household income. It does not involve only household income.
I repeat what I said to you in

in this thread.
