Despite a generation of no real wage growth, how could wages increase? Trishul examines why wages have stayed flat on a REAL inflation-adjusted basis over the last couple of generations. Globalization, tax law, and legislation favoring corporations have combined to increase wealth inequality and suppress wage growth. And Trishul sees no reason for it to change moving forward. Aaron argues that rewarding productivity and stability will be mutually beneficial to both employers and employees, rather than trying to extract all excess value. We'll see who's right in 40 years.
