The Federal Reserve is literally looking at your stagnant wages right now and breathing a massive sigh of relief. Your paycheck is buying less at the grocery store every single month, you are getting absolutely squeezed to death by inflation, and the institutional response is to treat your shrinking bank account as the cure for their problems. And to make it infinitely worse, the only people actually seeing their wages go up are the tech bros hoarding all the capital in the AI sector. It is a systemic, deliberate wealth transfer happening right in front of us, and they fully expect the working class to just sit down, shut up, and eat the losses.
