MODERATORS
It was part of it, but it's far more than a change in dollar value. Companies learned they could do things to max their bottom line at the expense of the workers. The link posted has its biases of the time, but the graphs speak louder than the rhetoric.
As one of the memes/copypastas I love and have been seeing a lot lately in various topics goes at the end, "They have played us for absolute fools!"
