A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

@Bongo_Stryker @wintermute_oregon I also calculated the numbers, the companies are actually slightly disproportionately disadvantaged. Productivity over that time period for companies was 24.9% of the rate of inflation, while hourly pay rose by 28.3% of that productivity. Not even a massive difference TBH. It doesn't seem as unfair as it sounds at first glance.

Ah yes. The classic “i ran the numbers far better than any financial analyst”

@breadsmasher Send me your financial analyst numbers that contradict this, and I will accept them.

Did I ever claim to be one? Did I post any numbers at all?

@breadsmasher Nope, so I guess I have you beat in that category 😜

You insinuated that my numbers contradicted something analysts had said, so I was thinking you had a source for what those analysts were saying, which would prove me wrong. I guess not!
