@Stahesh I would like more information about this. Simply listing those numbers will not convince me of any conclusions. (I'm not speaking against you, Stahesh, I'm speaking to whomever created this. This is how propaganda works.)
@DoubleD Hard to see the data when they can hide it.
Main problem that with inflation wage almost the same while company profits go up and they even increase their prices so workers wages must go somewhere be it owner, CEO or managers

The race for shareholder profits has left workers in the dust, according to new research

@Stahesh The third link's original study gives a 404 error, and it's title (from the link) communicates an agenda: "RI_EndingShareholderPrimacy_workingpaper_201902.pdf" I do not trust a word of the article because I cannot verify the original research. In my opinion, this is a valid cause to throw out the source.
@DoubleD Interesting did not looked deeper
My main problem as many of Gen Z like me can see that we do much more work and provide more values than older generations but see same pay or little increase compare to infaltion
I mainly talk about the jobs that were not automated and stayed the same but many companies have just skeleton crew that get paid almost same as many years ago
When I see during my 10-15 years how many products cost double and wages hardly move by 1-3% to follow inflation
@Stahesh Companies are working with skeleton crews and running them ragged because their costs have gone up.
Remember that there is no such thing as "the economy" in a literal sense; that is only a label: There are only individuals making specific transactions for specific goods and services at specific times under specific conditions. Those who favor intervention tend to use graphs like these because it obfuscates that truth.
