In U.S., wage growth is being wiped out entirely by inflation

Rising prices have erased U.S. workers’ meager wage gains, the latest sign strong economic growth has not translated into greater prosperity for the middle and working classes.

Cost of living was up 2.9 percent from July 2017 to July 2018, the Labor Department reported Friday, an inflation rate that outstripped a 2.7 percent increase in wages over the same period. The average U.S. “real wage,” a federal measure of pay that takes inflation into account, fell to $10.76 an hour last month, 2 cents down from where it was a year ago.

Yikes smh :smh:. Libs need to learn some civility.
#Amen. The libs out here are causing mayhem and division and partisanship in this great LAND OF THE FREE. What we need more than anything, right now, is UNITY and the RIGHT KIND OF MINDSET under our DEAR LEADER PRESIDENT ELECT DONALD JESUS TRUMP so that we can take our country back! And these LIBS only want to take our jobs, health care, land, homes and white Christian identity heritage!

Everyone make sure to VOTE next week, for our one and only savior VLADIMIR PUTIN DONALD J. TRUMP at your local voting booth/gun store/radicalization factory (church).
