The Wages of Men
For
reference: Here are changes in hourly real wages of men, 1973-2012, at
different percentiles of the wage distribution, calculated from Census
data by the Economic Policy Institute. As you can see, wages have fallen
for 60 percent of men.
Never has been a good time to be a poor man in America. We have a puritanical view of poverty which clashes with any view of fairness.
