Also I noticed that no mention was made of the increase of immigration. Vastly increase the supply of no-skill labor and don't be surprised that the wages and benefits for them decline. I don't know whether Ramos is a citizen, legal immigrant or illegal, but even if she is a citizen the value of her labor is driven down and the price of her housing is driven up by the huge amount of immigration. Don't demand an open border and then in the same breath cry about wage stagnation.

The San Francisco Chronicle should be screaming ‘BUILD THE WALL’. Corporate America is doing what it has always done. Cutting costs as much as it can and raising prices as much as it can.
The San Francisco Chronicle should be screaming ‘THANK GOD TRUMP WAS ELECTED’ because he will improve the lives of the lower and middle classes by restricting the influx of legal and illegal immigrants.
But, of course, the San Francisco Chronicle cannot say that since their masters Pelosi and Feinstein will not allow it.
That is the cool thing about Slavery Lite. You can keep getting new ones fresh from Central American poverty. So you never have to treat them as well as YOUR KIDS. They are expendable. Just like the Slavery you want to pull down the statues against. Lefties are so hypocritical there needs to be a new word for it.
