Corporate Profits Just Hit An All-Time High, Wages Just Hit An All-Time Low

[blacken700]

In case you need more confirmation that the US economy is out of balance, here are three charts for you.

if these workers wanted better wages, they should have chosen to be born the son of a governor, earned an MBA, worked as a missionairy in france and taking 4 deferrments for vietnam, then inherited an investment firm.

why the fuck can't they just do things the old fashioned way and quit complaining.

I dont know if anyone is really concerned about regulation on the Super Corp's.

Wonder what the wages are for Americans with Bachelors Degrees are?  I'd bet a good deal that this doesn't affect them anywhere near as to how it affects the working class.....you know, that working class always bitching and moaning to Washington about how high food and gas prices are, lol.

Filthy Commie

[GigantorX]

Well, the labor pool keeps growing so there are more and more people fighting for a stagnant or shrinking # of available positions.

Thus the average wages will drop as there is a surplus of labor.

I don't see what is so controversial.
