@lemmy.worldPrices are still going up every time I go to the store. It's nice for some think tank to say "inflation is down" but until I see prices stall out it's just verbal masturbation.
You're not wrong but 25% over 4 years isn't going to even keep up with inflation if things keep going as they have. Our Union got 12% over two years for the upcoming contract and most of us aren't happy about it. I know it's better than most US workers are going to get but it's not good enough.
I had heard Boeing had offered a 25% pay bump. Hadn't heard it was over 4 years. 6.25% per year wouldn't keep up with (real) inflation if it keeps going like it has for the past several.
I'm a little sad the union didn't have a quip about Boeing assassinating former employees.
Hey it's like me and my older brother. I avoided all sorts of trouble by watching him make dumb mistakes and learning from them.
It would end me on the spot if Walz had some guys carry a couch out on stage right off the bat and place it between them.
Billionaires and their desire to have real wage slavery (even more so than now) and to not have to pay taxes.
