I don't see the point of an adjustment for the percentage of workers who get little or no non-cash benefits. The figure is an average, it already is effectively adjusted. If a worker gets no non-cash benefits a zero is averaged in. Adjusting twice distorts the statistic rather than making it more accurate.

That's an Orwell essay from 1945.
My first thought was the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Note the definition of "nationalism" as used in the article.
