Why might people still feel disadvantaged even though their incomes are rising and their housing circumstances have improved?
They might when they still earn considerably less than the people who are better off, or if even the improved income still is insufficient for their needs; also, when the rise in wages is less than the rise in prices of goods. Housing conditions, even if 'improved', might still be primitive.
