On a yearly basis, wages and salaries jumped 3.1 percent, the biggest increase in 10 years. Wage increases have been the missing link in the economy since the recovery began in mid-2008. Average hourly earnings have been rising steadily but have stayed below the 3 percent level as slack has remained in the labor market.

Obama says we should tell him “you’re welcome” because you can’t have that kind of growth without 8 years of stagnation.

Because you don’t interrupt an opponent while they are destroying themselves.

And the Dems are clearly destroying themselves with their desperate flailing.

2 pay raises in 1 year over here, 1 was company wide and another merit based. Plus they increased our benefits package. Small business with around 250 employees but apparently we’re kicking arse and business is good. Hopefully the economy keeps on chugging, I want 3 raises next year.

Wages and salaries for the rich. Actual wages are not rising as fast as inflation and prices are rising even faster.

Trade deficit has increased, budget deficit has increased, stock market has corrected already and is still in a bubble.

Dude you are so obsessed. I'm trying to figure out which obsession has sent you over the edge more - trade or film credits.

You are a weird one.
