I thought it was high but didn't realize it was that high. It's probably a lot higher in CA. They do much of the work there. 5/26/21

Funny how that's 100% correlated with wage stagnation. Hmmm, must just be a coincidence... 
And now that companies are forced to raise salaries in the guise of "living wage" and competition (I even saw a McDonald's offering a signing bonus) expect government to allow any and all immigration to push that pay back down. 5/26/21

Bad for the average worker but fuel for stocks to go up. That's the goal and purpose of this country now. Can't afford housing or healthcare?
