>> Unless we highly incentivize employment via business tax cuts there will be too much slack in the job market preventing any upward wage pressure.

Even WITH cuts it is an uphill battle.

The truth is that labor has become so expensive (and it is going to get worse as the "employer mandate" is activated after the election), university education is out of reach for most of the middle class, and individual taxes are racheted up to combat increasing deficits making work less worthwhile, I don't know when Americans will ever be back working again with ordinary jobs.

Really sad.
