Nowhere in original article or links in the article is there any mention about working for $13 per hour. Skilled machinists and electricians wouldn't be working for that.

What I find interesting is that if the articles are accurate, Cat thinks the the economy is going to suck for the next 6 years since they aren't offering any pay raises.

I was referring to the information in comment # 27.

In any case, no pay raises while prices rise equals pay cuts. If somebody worked for the equivalent of 100 gallons of gasoline (or 50 pounds of beef, or 20 cartons of cigarettes) per week, is now working for 75% of that, they’ve taken a pay cut.
