>real (inflation-adjusted) wages
lol.
The whole point of this discussion is that our metrics are not properly measuring things. The reported inflation number is a joke. See: anything in life that matters like
- a house
- a car
- an education
- health care
- raising a kid
- basically any life-milestone
but TVs and electronic toys have never been cheaper so it's all okay! Hedonic adjustment!
- emseetech 2y ago| an education The community college in the area I briefly lived growing up was $17 a credit hour in 1997. Inflation adjusted that's $31.67 a credit hour. It's now nearly $140 a credit hour. Almost 4.5x more than inflation. For a community college.
- lotsoweiners 2y agoProbably considerably cheaper than the University and you can always transfer after 2 years.
