Biggest decline in US productivity in 74 years

Yeah, it says in your article the cause is the correlation between worker pay and their productivity, i.e., they're being paid more. They got raises, which fuels the inflation. I know you twuptards hate it when workers get raises, or try to vote or get an abortion.

Sorry you're authoritarian handmaids tale utopia are going away, twumptard.

Need a tissue?

Not the cause of inflation. The cause of inflation is the Fed printing money faster than wealth being created.

Productivity is not, "dropping". It's even or slightly increased but was eclipsed buy wages which is the formula deriving the productivity metric. In short, workers got raises. It's a good thing. It may cause inflation in the short term but as the economy always does after a - minimum wage increase for example - it will equalize. How do I know this? It always has.

We are in an economic depression that's been going for three years so far, dude.

Wow! Was that ever a post spewing projection to the highest degree.

You claim to be "educated" and "zen". Yet you post bullshit and lose your cool all the time. Do you not realize we see you?

Appeal to authority fallacy. Strawman fallacy. No argument presented. Trolling.

I love it when the GOP taliban wishes for economic demise.. the demise they caused..then the Dems come in and clean up their mess, just like Clinton had to for Reagan/Bush, and Obama had to for little Bush. Geez little
Bush (W) almost finished us!

Republicans are not Taliban. Democrats caused the economic depression. Democrats caused the mess.
Lying will not help you.

Yep had trump and his negligent GOP govs locked down and supported the preventative measures, and vaccines, the pandemic would have been over much more quickly, much fewer deaths and illness and we'd have all been back to work much more quickly.

So obvious.

Trump did not lock down anything. DEMOCRATS did. Neither Democrats nor Trump control any virus. Covid19 does not kill.

they do force people to buy new computers from companies that do by making their OS more burdensome but thats another matter.

Which is why Microsoft is losing the desktop market, dumbass.

They have contract employees but they are still managed in-house as opposed to contracting with other software companies to do their work.

They have both. They also contract with hardware companies to supply them with the hardware they need to write software.

That is a reasonable statement, but let me give you the flip side. Millennials are a bigger generation than Baby Boomers, at least at the moment. The labor force keeps growing. While we do have more older people per worker, that is because the number of older people keeps expanding.

Baby Boomers were called the Me Generation, because they are selfish. Millennials can be selfish too, but they are also hard working when they want to be.

On the far more theoretical side: The Economist Solow said, "computers are everywhere, except for in the productivity statistics", or something like that. He said it back during the 1980's, and computers have contributed more to productivity since then. But the basic point still stands, that computers have contributed less to productivity than would be expected. Maybe the problem is that older people cannot use computers well. There is a theory that we will see a huge bump in productivity when we get the Baby Boomers out of leadership.

Those Boomers built the computer industry, twit.

I stopped reading about a quarter way though, because it occurred to me - I'm correct. You are miserable. You proved my point.

You're an evil propaganda puppet, spewing whatever garbage Tucker or Alex tell you.

I actually feel a little sorry for you.
