Don't have the time for EQ in another Timezone. Maybe if I lived in the US but even still you work your ass off even harder in the US with a pitiful 5 days of leave on your first year. I'll take my 6 weeks of annual leave thx.

Don't know how you guys can afford to play EQ ; most people work 50+ hours a week in the US to make ends meet with the increasing costs of living.
The US is experiencing deflation you idiot

Cost of living skyrockets yearly and most wages have stagnated completely over the past shit presidency we've had.

Not just the past presidency dude. Take the partisan hack shit down a notch.

Wages have been stagnant since 1999 at the least, some sectors as early as 1996-97. And family income has been steadily declining since 1992.

Its been a steady downward trend. Same jobs, lower salaries for the past 20 years decreasing mostly every year. Corporations are incentivized to hire cheap, get decent people for the lowest money possible.

But you are right, the same jobs are paying less. This is why tax cuts alone don't work to fix the economy and why you should be skeptical of Trump. The corporations simply aren't playing ball. They are treating America like a 3rd world country.

Corporations are making record profits and sitting on the most cash reserves in history after the recovery, guess how much money made it into workers hands? None, all decreases in salary among white collar workers and wage workers.

Uh maybe if you work at burger king or walmart as a greeter, but I assure you real jobs and hard work still pays off. It's always been that way. These idiots fry cooking at kfc at 30 years old expecting to be able to provide for a whole family are just idiots.
