    I didn't watch, but I'm sure a bunch of hot marxist economic talk will be super special. Losers lose.

    Marxists always have the big money. Venezuela for example. Takes a wheelbarrow full of money to buy a loaf of bread. That's big money!

    I wonder if the across the board raising of minimum wages may have something to do with this. I also wonder if businesses hiring illegal labor may have something to do with this.

    Oh and by their own graphs, productivity has risen 238%, while wages have only risen 108%... in the last 40 years. So yeah. This is definitely related to the tax cuts given 6 months ago. It HAS TO BE!!!!

    To be clear, is it your position that the Trump tax cuts will not trickle down to the average worker or we should let it play out because reversing a 40 year trend in 2 years is unreasonable?

    Just like the trend in labor participation he bagged on the last 8 years.

    Actually. If you must know.. That chart shows that trickle down does not work. But ok!

    Globalisation moved many of the US manufacturing jobs overseas, so it is easy to see why our middle class has suffered.

    So if you got paid 50 cents a day for your labor you now make 75 cents a day? Wow that's awesome.

    it trickled to the chinks instead of the US where it had been trickling for the previous few decades
    for some reason boomers decided to bring billions of slave peasants suffering under authoritarian regimes into the workforce instead of enjoying prosperity and bringing third worlders in to replace the population instead of having children
    on the bright side we do get cheap lawn care and plastic shit

    You made the exact point. Even through 3 periods of trickle down economics. The wealthy and large businesses still outsourced the jobs to other countries.

    This is the 2nd time I remember your idiotic confusion of nominal wages with real wages.

    Real wages have barely increased since the 1980’s. For 2018 percentage increase in real wages is flat. Now shut the fuck up and get beat up by a Russian ultranationalist.

    What does “globally competitive” mean?

    Who’s the retard in this scenario?

    First, you sound jealous.

    Second, what do well paying tech jobs have to do with wealthy passing their tax cuts down to the middle class? They are well paid because of supply and demand. Not because of tax cuts or trickle down.

    It's worse than talking to Houston.

    Repeal the tax cuts and raise them on workers

    Take the guns

    Open the borders

    Democrats 2018

    While Democrats will surely fuck it up. Your logic is right from Fox news. Nice work.

    At least Hitler and Stalin rooted for their own country. Democrats somehow found a way to be even worse than both of them.

    not jealous just cognizant of reality
    fair supply and demand would result in tech companies filled with nothing but indians living like this:



    luckily we still have some borders and laws and restrictions on immigration so some americans will get to enjoy some wealth trickle down until people like you destroy it completely.

    Yes we agree. If we went to your free market Utopia. We'd end up like India.

    Luckily, you have “global competitiveness” working for you! “Proximity to wealth” means nothing to you! (It doesn’t matter no one knows what the fuck you are talking about.)

    Luckily you have borders, walls and restrictions on immigration? Who are you competing against?
