During our discussion about the lack of discussion about the economy, we showed these stark charts. They show that the economy may be improving by standard indicators, but not improving for many of the indicators that matter most to workers and their families:
Pay vs. Productivity
GDP vs. Household Debt
GDP vs. Hours Worked
GDP vs. Personal Income
GDP vs. Inequality
GDP vs. Poverty Rate
GDP vs. Hours Worked
Unemployment Claims
