...wages are NOT going up...

and why should they? Productivity and skills levels are going down.

If you want something produced at a decent price...go to China. Except if you want yard work, nannies or household help...then hire the illegals.

It's the American way.

wages are NOT going up and Obama's own stats prove it.

Huh? You need to stay away from Zero Hedge:

While millions of Americans are still struggling to find work that pays adequately, there are nascent signs that wages are finally beginning to rise. Average hourly earnings rose by a better-than-expected 0.3 percentage point in August.

Wages start going up when you reach fully employment............its basic economics.
