[QUOTE="35years, post: 5203454, member: 60822"] Well, actually wages in the USA have been rising faster than ours for years on a percentage basis.. We may be used to less than a dollar an hour increases, but it is time to wake up. 5% wage increases have been the norm outside of UPS for a decade. [SIZE=5][B]Wages in the United States increased 9.16 percent in December of 2021 over the same month in the previous year. [URL unfurl="true"]https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/wage-growth[/URL][/B][/SIZE] $39.67+ .76 June 2022+$1 August= $41.43 at contract time. [B]Dollar yearly increases would yield:[/B] $42.43 2023; $43.43 2024...[B]$47.43 in 2018 Inflation is currently running at 8%-9.5% EVEN at 5% inflation $41.43 in 2022 should increase to $55.52 in 2018[/B] $47.43 vs $55.52. A difference of $8 an hour in buying power. $20,000 less a year. Would you do this job for $20k less per year than you make now? [/QUOTE]
