This is why I loved all the strikes this summer. If you take care of old people, today you make more because you have a union. Writers, auto workers.

The UAW just bought themselves 20 years. By then everything will be automated.

Median net worth: $272,800 (ages 50-54), $320,700 (ages 55-59)

That's really the telling stat right there. Without Social Security and Medcare, those folks will have a tough time in retirement.

Every other country protected their vital industries.

You also said overpaid Americans are why you hire illegals.

So you hire illegals, send your shops to mexico, all to avoid paying Americans a fair wage.

Whats a fair wage? I don’t know. Third base.

Do you have the stats for 60+?

Remember the really rich who are old drive that number up. The real number is probably $400k. And $200k of that is your home.

So let’s say you get $25k from social security and 5% on the $200k you saved. Let’s just say it adds up to $3000 a month most seniors have Coming in. Thank god for social security. Republicans want to do away with social security. Eat up your $200k. Sell your home and rent an apartment

That's sorta why I split off the median for a separate discussion.

I remember the value of the dollar was really low on bushs watch and republicans said that’s good for tourism?

Inflation ≠ exchange rate

From 1978 to now ceo pay went up 1322%. Your pay went up 18%. You tell me.

2. if the company has a union, fair is always more than in a non union company.

3. My brother graduated in the 90s. Rose to the top. Made a lot. In that time he gave himself big raises. No union so workers only got modest raises if any.

I think he overpaid himself and underpaid the middle class workers. He’s retiring in April at 55. You have to work till you’re 70

From 1978 to now ceo pay went up 1322%.

Liar.

You could shoot them and seize all their assets.
As a warning to the rest.

They could have saved more without 12.4% of their wages taken every month.

Another reason no men want to get married. 50% of marriage don’t work out. Imagine having to cut what you saved in your 20s and 30s, give a large chunk to two lawyers, then cut what’s left in half.

People are getting smarter. The old way of having 2.5 kids is gone

50 percent of marriages fail
But the rest give you a relationship that lasts the rest of your life

whats a fair wage??

Used to be someone working menial labor could earn enough to support a family of 4+ kids without government assistance

Maybe we can start there

Not really
A Janitor, ditch digger, farm laborer made enough to provide food and shelter for his family

Now, menial labor needs housing assistance, food stamps and medicaid to supplement his family

But CEOs are doing very well

Liar.

It did in the Fortune 500 companies. That’s thousands of Americans who gave themselves all big fat raises by keeping labor costs low. Dummy

For a few CEOs, not all CEOs.
Thanks for admitting to your error (lie?).
