    another post of yours, devoid of any substance. It's amusing watching you play this game. When you get your ass handed to you by actual data, you seem to mentally and psychologically shut down and fling these moronic one liners, as if they somehow change the fact that your argument has been embarrassingly demolished.

    All irrelevant in the real world. Many sites from right or left cherry pick data. Facts are real here in my family. No wage increases in 25 years vs Inflation, in fact, down nearly 50%. Now, you can go to a republican think tank site and they would write, not so. Find some data to debate it using CPI (which is worthless) or GDP which doesn't have an effect on y day to day.

    Real inflation across all sectors has moved at 5% a year. I could put up the link, but then it would subject to (who are they). We should use govt' data. Should russian use their Govt data, or venezula ? Of course not, unless you are part of the PARTY stealing the money, then one would push that data.

    It all is a shell game for the rich and powerful, use some schmucks down here at working class level to push their agenda. I work at a place where the owner, his wife, and kids all drive Porsche, Lambo, Mazarati, their down car is a range rover. THey have 10 - 15 immigrants show up each day, 3 or 4 in a car. Yet, this is legal in our country ? They are devote Trump fans, I think they even belong to Mar A Largo. But, as things go today, ownership isnt part of a family business with Employees they care about, it is employees the USE and abuse. "You should be happy you have a job" I heard them tell one guy. I am skilled, thus, dictate my wage.
    What about the AMERICAN that has not the ability to educate, should he starve due to the fact the republicans flooded our country with Grass cutters, fruit pickers, house cleaners ? THat is what we have, now trump screams against it in his attempt to get workers to like him while he uses the same approach. It is all a big joke !

    We had the same comments from the Bush Admin. in 2006. Went like this : The economy is doing great and wages are starting to go up. They knew a collapse was coming and that wages would NOT go up but a percent or two before the fall Same thing now as we head into a rec. The Republican party has been saying it is getting better, we cut taxes, so that is UP for you. Wait, just wait, it is getting better, we Promise.
    Not going to happen and this time, with all the Credit dummies piled on with Cars, over paying for homes, on meager income, they will lose it all, move in with mom and dad and be 40 and broke. We will come very close to a depression, but all the politicians will never CALL IT THAT because, (not on my watch)... Honesty is not a thing any politician wants to give, maybe Bernie, but he is out of touch.

    Waiting to see if the new young dems allow themselves to get bought out... Will be important, do they play FDR, or do they play OBAMA. Obama was bought and Now plays up the good guy role. Wholesome family and sticks to the talk show circuit that pumps the family personality.

    Those numbers are worthless in the real world, but nice trying to "pretend you care about the people" GDP is worthless because real inflation, which the GOVT doesnt post, outweighs all GDP numbers going back to 1995. We have grown 0, notta, in that time, nothing...

    You've achieved a triple whammy: attacked supply & demand (given labour demand, which determines wage, automatically adjusts according to revenue); demonstrated no comprehension of lag/lead indicators, as applied in GDP analysis; shown no ability to support your position with evidence. Well done!

    Gotta love the university trained economists who seem incapable of understanding that wage increases lag positive changes in economic growth.

    I'm not an economist. However, you don't need to be one to know that wage isn't a lag indicator like employment. Remember, even your own source informed you of that reality!

    There you go again. Wages clearly lag the initiation of economic growth.

    You keep repeating nonsense. You've been asked to support it with evidence. So far you've only found a source that supports what I've said. Try again? [I predict more dodge mind you]

    I keep repeating the truth. Wages lag economic change.

    Truth? Let's have one credible source that supports your position. That shouldn't be difficult, surely?
