Technology and computers came in and became more popular about the time those began to diverge

>technology has no effect on productivity
shut up texas
>productivity up
>cost down
How is this bad?
>>67604687
You went full kike, m8.
>>67604625
I won't.

What happened in the early 70's related to these numbers?
Off the gold standard?
Women and third worlders suppressing wages. Bourgeois little helper.
>>67604871
Workers are getting fucked in the ass despite being more productive than ever.

A machine making things more efficient does not mean that workers should get paid more.
More productivity =/= more productive workers

Seriously leave the job creators alone.

this
open borders and exporting labor. if americans were still making their own products, their wages would have continued to stay in line with productivity.
There should be a third line plotted in that chart titled "Time spent on social media while at work"
>>67605053
Mass immigration started 1965
Emancipation of women also creates a new cache of wagecucks who in tandem with the immigrants bid themselves down
>>67605158
That's true for the porn industry as well. More women are doing anal scenes and yet the pay rate is going down.
>>67606615
Sounde like basic anal supply and anal demand economics to me mang.
>>67605053
Reaganomics.
"Trickle down" economics, that is.
>>67604625
Outsourced to automation.
You can pay machines close to nothing, yet they'll keep on chugging.
>>67604625
Bullshit stats.
Debunked like women's wage gap.
Fuck this socialism shipping. Socialism sucks never works and before you mention Denmark know they had to ban unions in Denmark to create jobs and in Sweden we have lower taxes than America and billionaires pay nothing and our welfare systems in all social democracies sucks horse balls.

This. If anything the graph show the devaluing of the US dollar.
Efficient. I likes.
Cashier here. Productivity is up because you're required to do more than what's in your job description. Most, if not all of Gen Z could work the jobs they do now without technology. Signing-on to be a cashier but then being told to be the janitor, stocker, and customer service rep is where productivity has risen.
>>67604625
Not I won't, wages are far too low. 40 years ago you could make a living doing literally anything, now you need to go 50k in debt just to have a shot at getting a minimum wage job that won't even be enough for you to survive off of.
>>67604625
Could you please tell me how to get MORE productivity out of the shitbags I hire? Because, in reality, I was getting much more effort out of people a decade ago than I am now, you fucking Millennials can't seem to work a single shift without wasting at least 40% of your time dicking around.
Oh, wait, this is a bullshit stat that you chose because it suits your agenda of feels. My mistake, I thought you weren't retarded at first.
>>67604625
Trump is campaigning against this very thing.
> what is outsourcing
> what is illegal labor taking jobs
Wake up Chiledawg
>>67604625
I swear, listening to /pol/ talk about economics is like listening to a creationist talk about biology.
>>67605053
Computers start becoming ubiquitous
>>67609613
Still diverging
Tax the super-rich!
