The end of the American Dream

[Skull Pilot]

You all seem to think you are owed something .

where is the evidence of that?

The whining about corporations and CEOs isn't enough evidence of that?

Would you consider zero raise a cut given the COLA?

No because your employer has nothing to do with the cost of living.

??? No but this is why many get raises unless its a promotion or a merit raise. Are you from Mars?

The I have to get a raise every year mindset is just as stupid as the everyone has to go to college mind set.

And your employer is not cutting your pay if you don't get a raise.

Here's a novel idea

If you want to make more them make yourself more valuable to your employer or find an employer who thinks you are worth more than your current employer does.

What if everyone has made themselves more valuable (profit and productivity) and nobody gets a raise

Fantasy

The vast majority of people do just enough to not get fired.

America has the most productive workers in the world
Their pay and decreasing benefits do not reflect it

Especially because their pay and benefits aren't decreasing.
