wages since 2010 have declined like 9% factoring in inflation
We are playing catch up with wages while company's are are beyond caught up


I guess that's why stop and shop workers went on strike.

Stop & Shop’s parent company, Ahold Delhaize, hasn’t justified the cuts, noting that the Dutch food retail giant reported $2 billion in profits last year, and recently voted to give shareholders $880 million in dividend payments

Nobody is saying that everyone is killing it. But most folks who have good jobs have benefited from this economy. To expect a champagne pocketbook with a Boone’s farm background is probably a stretch but a paycheck that supplies food,shelter,electric,cable,cell phone and many of the other comforts formerly associated with the middle class should be celebrated. Combine this with the good fortune of a pension and some vacation money and you should kick your heels together.
