Like making $15/hr was ignominious in like 2010 which is probably like $24 now. Was having a back and forth with some redditor who makes $20/hr, maybe less. Like that employer just acts like it’s Normal and nbd or they don’t know any better.
Winners making $690,000k like it’s nbd, rich get richer. Inflation doesn’t affect them. But if you’re in an, idk, stagnant or Losery part of the economy, it’s bad. I don’t wanna know what GameStop pays rn.
Every Loser should try to find a big-ish co because you can’t rip people off to extremes At Scale usually.
Btw I’m not looking for a job until the Democrats take Congress.

Ordinarily inflation is great for Losers and bad for the wealthy. If everything inflated at the same rate, that means debt is savings are worth less in real terms. Great for debtors, bad for savers.
The issue is that wage are stagnant and there is massive inflation. And the inflation is primarily a result of money printer go brrr which was done for handouts for the wealthy.
It's not inflation, it's grift.

Wages don’t stagnate. Stats show that they don’t stagnate across the board. They stagnate in certain sectors and cohorts (Gen X). When the economy goes through shocks, the gaps widen and bifurcate imo.
Saying wages stagnate forever is kind of low IQ in 2026. It was a VERY accurate talking point in like 2010 because of Gen X. There were fewer millennials working and Gen X is the lowest income Gen ever. Makes total sense.
The Loser at Best Buy or whatever makes exactly whatever they did 15 years ago probably. The High Nerd is like “$1,000,000k, champ” when it was 280k a few years ago probably.
