Quote:So because you couldn't support a family of four, buy a home and a car and live comfortably on minimum wage in 1968... you should earn less when adjusted by inflation now, because hey 'you're still not able to do those things'?

Yes...that's exactly what I said. You caught me, and here I thought I was being so sneaky about it. :Teehee:



You said you wanted the next generation to do better than ours, and I pointed out that they can not expect to do the exact same work that you do and expect to be able to have a better lifestyle than you do now, even if you adjust wages to a comparable inflation level.


I also agree that wages should increase with at least the inflationary rate.
