Still, in the nine years since the end of the Great Recession, an unusually high percentage of Americans (14%) are still not seeing pay raises. The federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour and hasn’t increased since 2009, although some states and municipalities enacted laws to raise the wage this year.

Salary increases in 2018 are at 2.8%, according to another study released Thursday by professional services firm Mercer, no change from 2017. The majority of firms it works with are expressing concerns about retaining workers.

In 2016, there were eight CEOs with pay packages exceeding $30 million. Meanwhile, America’s Middle class has been shrinking and lost 30% of its wealth over the last four decades, according to another 2015 study.

Did your wife raise your allowance Dan?  LOL

LOL!  You're hilarious. 

No.  Your wife started paying me more to have sex with her, since she wasn't being satisfied by you.

It doesn't come out until October.  But the libs started raiding the PFD two years ago.  So it will be about half what it should be.  But that is not the catylyst for my raise.  That paltry $1,100 is less than 1% of my income.
