Did Anyone Read the KC Star This Morning
The article about declinging wages. Its worth the time. Article is from the NYT. It shows that Corporations are showing bigger profits but the little guy on the street is simply making less. And part of that is due to high health care costs pd by companies so they have less money left over for pay increases.

And part of that could be that the employee is having to stretch his dollar further and further since he (or she) is having to foot highter health care costs.

But this is interesting because it shows what the Bush policies are really accomplishing. No surprise.
