Yeah idiot.

That means that wages are falling in real terms.

They are supposed to be going the other way...DUH.

The last time wages dropped compared to inflation - the DOW nosedived 1000 points...it's a BIG deal you macroeconomic dumbass.


But why don't you explain to us all - using links to unbiased, factual proof to back up your claims - how real wages dropping over an entire year (while the economy is supposed to be 'booming') - is a good thing?

(this should be good for a laugh)

And who said it was?


Now maybe explain to us now consumers are supposed to keep up with rising prices/inflation and expenses while real wages are dropping?

God you Trumpbots are idiots.

That means that people are losing purchasing power...you knucklehead.

Or I suppose you think that is a good thing.

At 0.1 % a year in ten years 1%.

And it may not ever go down again.

But feel free to hide in your safe place with hubby and cry.

What this country needs is more poorly skilled and poorly educated illegals that can't speak the language or understands how indoor plumbing works AND give amnesty to the 20 to 30 million illegals that are already here! That will fix the problem!

Why is there inflation? What causes it? I bet you haven't a clue.....prove me wrong.

"Real average hourly earnings were unchanged, seasonally adjusted, from May 2017 to May 2018.
Combined with a 0.3-percent increase in the average workweek, real average weekly earnings increased
by 0.3 percent over this period."

I hate dingbats.

Nice purse swing in those high heels honey.

Well, according to you leftists, Obama is the one responsible for our soaring economy. I guess that means he's also responsible for declining wages. Right?

But feel free to hide in your safe place with hubby and cry.

I will ask again...who said we should panic?


2) Hear is a question that even someone as stupid as you can answer:

'Are real average wages falling good or bad for the consumer?'

2) A continued loss of real average hourly wages would be a HUGE drag on the economy.

But I guess you are too stupid to understand that as well.

It is irrelevant how much it drops. Wages have to go up or the consumer starts to get left behind.

That falls under the 'well duh' category.


Damn...you are SUCH a macroeconomic ignoramus.

LOL

Ad Hominem diversion duly noted.

Congratulations...there is hope for you yet.

That is all I was trying to say in the OP...that this data is bad for consumers.


We are done here.

Good day.
