Wouldn't lowpaying agricultural jobs have the same apparent effect on relative wage growth?
Are rising wages a cogent economic indicator and/or good or bad?

No. The existence of a broken border and unfettered illegal immigration creates a system where our lower class is artificially bloated beyond what it’s capacity is supposed to be.
When there’s too many people in the low class work force and they will compete for each other to offer lower wages, why should wages ever naturally rise?
Any time low class Joe America wants to work for a reasonable wage, there will be an illegal immigrant Mexican that will do the job under the table for much cheaper. Why should wages ever rise under these conditions?
Let’s use an example. There’s a middle class family that is saving hard to send their daughter to college. They need to paint their home. Are they going to hire low class Joe America who works slightly above minimum wage. Or will they hire the illegal immigrant who will circumvent US laws to works under the table? People mostly go for the cheaper option, especially when they have other bills to pay.
When you complain about rural Americans being large portion of welfare relievers understand this is why. You’re expecting our citizens to compete with illegal immigrants who will work under minimum wage. Now is your attacks and ridicule of white rural America as fun?
