In other words, after moving the goal post and omitting big chuncks of society, you found your niche.I should have said, but didn't (brain fart) BLUE COLLAR wages. And I'm talking real wage growth..... Earnings growth minus inflation. It's a little complicated for a dimocrap to understand. No pictures.
Wages, Obama Economy's Weakest Link, Now Surging Under Trump | Investor's Business Daily
Since the 2008-2009 recession, wage growth for workers has been stuck at 2.5% or lower — compared to a 3%-plus growth rate for wages before the financial crisis.
It's not surprising this should be so: The economy failed to grow by more than 3% in any year during the Obama era, despite massive stimulus of nearly a trillion dollars and record-low zero-percent interest rates engineered by a desperate Fed.
The average annualized growth of the Obama years was actually less than 2%, the worst performance since the Great Depression.
Hey, job numbers are out today, how come you no longer talk about the real unemployment rate of the record high number of people out of the labor force?
