I wonder how Kimura can say this. All the things you support like high spending, regulation, deficits, ultra low interests, govt welfareprograms etc. are at the highest of the millenium. Yet things are not good because... there should be even more spending?
That may be story we can get from our freinds at Bloomberg, but I've learned that it's always best to check whatever they come up with. Here are the actual Census.gov numbers where Bloomberg said they got their info--...two-income families have replaced single-earner ones...
Interesting. Your own graph shows that most real household incomes have increased by over four thousand dollars, and then you turn right around and repeat the looney-lefty line about 'stagnant incomes'. Please help me out; I know you're not a loony-lefty. What am I missing?...Three decades worth of increases in productivity and stagnant wages...
Only the poor and lower end of the middle class retires. The very weathy work until they drop on the job. The upper middle class retires into second careers.
The idea of retirement into idleness was always silly.

Ah, we went from all "wages" to merely "the vast majority". We're making progress in the right direction but your own numbers still show median incomes rising by ten percent and real median wages increasing by four percent (total incomes > total wages = increased worker benefit compensation). iow, the "vast majority" did in fact see a gain according to your own numbers that you selected from David F. Ruccio--...the vast majority don't benefit from this gain in productivity...Interesting.

--that show a 300% gain since '47. Annual increases for productivity of 2.5% have made possible 1.7% increases yearly for employee compensation.

Even though the extreme left says there are some who favor capital over labor, it's a lie. There is nobody who says that they favor capital over labor. There are however, the extreme loony left that think that labor should get all the benefits from productivity that resulted from both labor and capital.
