Are real wages really up when inflation and cost of living, healthcare rises are factored in?
Everything I've read suggests real wages have been stagnant since the 70's.
- castlecrasher2 8y agoThe article says "wages up .3%"
- ionised 8y agoRead the rest of my post. The question stands, because the article doesn't specify whether it is talking about wages or wages in real terms. Someone mind explaining what these downvotes are for? All I asked was a question. This place is becoming like Stack Overflow.
- amanaplanacanal 8y agoThose numbers are always inflation adjusted.
- ionised 8y agoGood to know, but I wasn't aware.
- amphibian87 8y agoSo, a negligible amount?
- uxp100 8y agoHow much do you expect wages to rise in a month?
- TheCoelacanth 8y agoThat is not a negligible amount of growth for a single month.
- jandrese 8y agoIt's a nice amount for a month, but the monthly figure is very noisy so it's hard to be all that excited about it.
