Did you read/understand my comment? I didn't say you're abjectly wrong, I just asked for actual data about engineering wages. We know average real wages have slipped, but we also know the real minimum wage has fallen a lot, and also that our GINI coefficient is up. In the absence of better data, the logical supposition here is that real incomes amongst lower-income employees have fallen more than amongst higher income employees. Again: Unless you have data on inflation adjusted engineering wages, this is a totally misleading/inaccurate argument.
