Pianoman: as I mentioned in another thread.... your method of discussing things....

You give us a list of FACTS (in caps no less) but no sources.

Why bother? What's your point?

Just an example about wages...this from the Columbia University Press ....fact? I don't know... but it sure contrasts with your unidentified sources:

"In the United States, wages increased fivefold between 1860 and 1960. Adjusted for inflation and expressed in 1982 dollars, the typical weekly wage of a U.S. worker increased from $262 in 1960 to $298 in 1970, but increased foreign competition and slower U.S. economic growth forced weekly wages down to $274 in 1980 and $255 in 1991."
