$5 a day=$25 a week. $25 a week. 52 weeks=$1,300. $1,300 divide by the new $300 car?
This all means the unskilled laborer was earning 4.33 new cars per year in wages.
A decent new car today $40,000? Times 4.33 cars per year in wages? Means one year unskilled labor is supposed to be $173,200 per year. $3,330 per week. That there is what our unskilled labor tax absorber cops make plus benefits. Unskilled tax payers, don’t make anywhere near that.
$173,200 per year today is middle class. Big business was running everything and hated to pay what they were supposed to pay, so managed to get away with what they got away with re foreign labor.
Reversal, they all can’t get away with, what they used to getaway with, like Bernie Madoff and all the others after him. Various politicians, various businesses sectors, permissive corruption, open borders? etc etc all getting reversed. We should all be happy.
Chevy 4X4 Pick Up Truck $63,175, plus sales tax $68,623. I guess TPTB don’t want us to own them. They have V/8 Engines.
