U.S. workers have gotten way less productive. No one is sure why.

I want to draw special attention to one quote from this article that states:
Higher productivity eventually translates to more goods and services available at a lower cost, and increased wages for workers, meaning higher productivity also combats inflation.
This is demonstrably untrue; America hasn't seen significant raises in decades despite consistent year over year productivity increases.
This article is a clear pro-big business fluff piece to try and whip gullible people into thinking the workers are some how lazy and not productive enough.
Fuck you WAPO and fuck you businesses, pay me.
