Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

And somehow, people thought warships were more impressive.

Guys, as we move ahead there are a couple of phrases that I'd like you to practice saying.
