    50 years of wage history proves you are a bootlicker or ignorant, or an ignorant bootlicker.

      I’m fairly certain they were saying that ironically…

      Sorry, I honestly thought it would raise the average pay, which in turn is used to promote capitalism.

        Sounds like you’re new to the world. Averages bury the lede. Median wages show a better picture.

          I’m pretty sure thats what Rockbottom is saying. They’re speaking descriptively, not prescriptively.

          Their first comment was said tongue-in-cheek.

          Right, can’t be said often enough. But we should never forget the shareholders, who want it this way.

        It does. People are just being dumb. (and yes… median wages do show a better picture).

        I, for one, understand that you agree with OP.
