For me at least from family in construction work it's very clear. They made the same hourly wage in the 80's as many workers do now, despite how much more productive construction has gotten.
The second article has a good quote:
> Wages and productivity were not growing at a directly proportional pace, but for some industries, such as high-tech (especially nowadays), wages are proportional to productivity. It all depends on the choice of variables taken into account.
