Yet there you are, wasting all your superiority hanging out with them. Except when you drop in here to spew infantile economic darwinism based on massive ignorance of how economic systems actually work.
Yeaaah you have no clue about economics as I’ve seen from your posts here, but you think whining about everything will maybe, what, change capitalism? Haha ok dude. I like the memes and jokes posted on /childfree, they’re funny! But I have learned not to take people on reddit overly seriously. It’s a great resource for some things, video game related especially.
~Wages are just as bad as they were 20 years ago. Haven't gone up at all.
~Lack of entry level jobs and employer training. Unskilled jobs abundant. Student loan debt still at record highs.
~Housing/apartment price inflation continues going up at least 2x faster than income growth. Record homelessness.
You might want to leave this stuff to people who have some idea what they are talking about. Just a thought.
1. Your claim that wages haven't gone up at all in 20 years is false. You are either lying or you've been fed bad information.
1.1 The reality is tempered wage growth has much to do with the fact the Federal Reserve has been able to navigate the last 10 years without a recession.
Oh, wow, look at that... a 9% increase over 20 years... two decades in which every other indicator was on afterburners. And a good part of that increase only in the last two years.

The other guy was wrong no matter your distortions and obfuscation noted.
Ah. Pointing out the shallow rise - but, by god, it is a rise, you're right - is "obfuscation."
Got it. Ain't econ fun, when the most trivial and isolated numerical point "wins" an argument?
For the year ending this past March "real" wages were up 1.3%. If you'd like for me to explain what the means let me know. That's neither trivial nor isolated.
