Why haven't wages kept up with productivity increases?
(((They))) want to perpetuate massive socioeconomic divisions
Because we don’t use real money, gold. Our nominal wages are rising, but the federal reserve monetizing government debt through inflation prevent prices from falling and prevents real wages from rising.
Because we don't produce any goods and services can be paid at a criminally low wage that pahjeets would accept that most won't.

People keep accepting low wages is why.
It really is that simple. Once people start to pay up short term for their long term (collectively), is the day you will see companies leave the U.S. but wages also skyrocket.
Everything else is just a smaller causative factor.
If I don't wage slave for 3 weeks, then I can't pay for my rent. Whereas my best friend spent his high school obtaining the CCIE cert and doing some bullshit.
Companies have already left the US though. The economy is literally like this: 30% of the population selling burgers to the other 30% of the population (who is also selling burgers back to them). 40% are NEETs on some kind of bennies. This is literally the absolute state of the economy right now.
I was answering OP's question. I'm not sure how your input is in any way helpful.
Mass immigration from the 70s onwards meant an oversupply of labour and weakening of worker's negotiating power.
Similar story in the late 1800s/early 1900s with things like the Homestead Strike.
females entering workforce
i blame women personally. name three women who deserve a raise. you cant.
Women entering the work force in the 70s in large numbers and immigration.
This expands the labour supply, win drives down costs (ie wages and conditions).
Why do you think every "business council" pushes so hard for workforce expansion policies? It's not about helping anyone excepr themselves.
Which can be offset by all males leaving the work force.
People don't know how much power they can hold collectively...
There are just as many useless dudes... To be fair.
Why the fuck would they? Why wouldn't business owners pocket the difference?
i know like 3 guys who are probably worth 15/hr and every woman ive ever met is worth about 7.30/hr
That's not fair because many men can be forced to have drive, but women when forced, produce less, are statistically less efficient (in many areas), and so on.
However, when society encourages men to be selfish scumbags, tells them subconsciously that women are more important than them, encourages their devilish side, this is what we get. Even law in America shows preferential treatment to women and minorities. It's like watching the weak rule over you. Who would be inspired by that. Consciously or subconsciously.
I can almost guarantee that society was more efficient in a mostly male/segregated work force.
Male and female both have different purposes, different general areas that they excel. I've met so many women already that have gone past the lines/acted creepy toward men in the workplace. If it was a guy, it would be almost a law suit or fired assuredly.
This diversity crap is just virtue signalling power grabbing garbage. And it's no wonder people don't respect white men. They keep giving their power away.
people don't "accept" low wages. people are forced to find work; if you do not have a job, you are homeless, but if a business doesn't have a job position filled, they are just less productive. so it skews in the favor of the job providers.
outsourcing, immigration, automation. it's really just that simple.
Thinking like a wagie.
Individualism creates division. Why do you think Jews are so powerful?
nah, there's a 3rd option; vote democrat and tax businesses to death and seize their wealth for the people.
When have taxes actually gone to the people?
Where has there been any single case of large scale democrat cities that have legitimately prospered most of it's inhabitants in the long term?
Run the statistics then come back with a real, structured, decision.
ya bro just leeeve da werkferce lmao, just b HOMless bruh. ya bro. totally doable lmao. fucking rich fucks, this is why we're voting for biden, to take everything from you.
most US cities are dominated from the shadows by white supreamacist mafias, trump being an example of the new york white supreamacist mafia. democrats fight for the little guy, they support everything that the 99% want and need to survive.
They won't accept you. Just like jesus you will be hated for telling the truth.
And I can leave the country just as easily lol. Don't be surprised when other well off people start doing the same and you're only left with trying to steal from each other.
Misery sure does love company, doesn't it?
lol.
>implying technology has not enabled wagies to do more in less amount of time
This bugged me for a long time. reading this helped, relevant pic related.

Things of note
> 1%ers are incredibly rich. Unfathomably compared to the average person.
> 99th percentile is 430k ish+
> 95th percentile income is a hair under 250,000 USD/year
> 90th percentile is 185k ish
> 50th percentile is 63k ish (Your income is probably around here or less)
tl;dr. America got jewed pretty hard going off the gold standard. 1% are in their own world of unfathomably wealth, while 95-99th percentile folks get finger pointed at for being at the top of a broken system. Since assets are finite and tend to stay in the hands of families / corporations, there is little to no trickle down (as some economists still think is a thing). Over long time periods, there is simply no trickle down, and you're stuck with the situation you see today- better to rent out a property for cash flow than ever actually sell, since assets grow over time no matter what you do. The system is already at breaking point, but it seems like detaching currency from a physical asset that can appreciate (gold, whatever really) quickly causes a two tier system to form. Asset/cashflow holders, and those with just cash (basically nothing).
Ironically capitalism works quite well for things like consumer goods. Look at the car you get for $15-20k now compared to 20 years ago, The cost of features across the board has been squished down. Same with TV's, computers, etc.
