    Yeah, but you're forcing the issue...

    Do you not think that the wage decline has anything to do with the corporate profit increase? Because money doesn't just disappear into thin air.

    Wages go down, profits go up...and you can't make that connection?????

    Or can you make that connection, you just don't want to because then you can't rely on your same old lazy scapegoats.

    When his post said real wages, and then he wrote this estimate was before inflation was accounted for, I had to grade the OP an 'F' in rudimentary freshman economics
    In that case you should never be typing on this board. At a minimum.

    That's what I wrote, but you chopped off the first three words of the sentence because you can't debate this subject with me due to the fact that you're a fucking loser.

    The only reason the economy would slip into a recession at this point is if the Federal Reserve wills it.

    So we heard a lot from people like Flash the last couple years about how the Fed was artificially inflating the economy through QE or whatever, but then suddenly people like Flash are silent or are even supportive of the Fed trying to engineer a recession because workers have too much leverage in the job market.

    It's hilarious to watch PMP being owned in his own thread. He is a loser.

    Bottom line, wages have decreased ONLY with respect to inflation. In other words, the exact opposite of what the OP claimed.
