          Scooby also see a reasoning where as retired folk are being replaced by younger folk the wages are being reset to entry level salaries?

              You can't just look at the raw numbers. You also have to consider the impact of inflation, and the overall stagnation in real wages for the middle class that has been ongoing for almost 4 decades now.

              Also in some cases, the older generation isn't being replaced with younger workers. They are "retiring" in their early-to-mid 60s, then rehired as contractors with no benefits. It's win-win for employers, as they get to keep an experienced worker in the role, and no longer have to pay their insurance premiums or 401k match.

                Money shot:

                In the early 1960s, the typical chief executive at a large American company made only 20 times as much as the average worker, rather than the current 271-to-1 ratio.

                          What's your starting salary during your freshman year in college?

                            $4/hr (I think) working for GHI in NYC for the summer. It WAS in 1974.

                              And right now it's around $10/hr for college students working the standard summer and after school jobs. But they're putting in less than 20 hours/week.
