  "Summary": "<p>There is a lot in this chart, which shows wages to GDP and demonstrates a long slide that started in the 1970's. What has caused this? Many things:</p><p> 1. We globalized and sent manufacturing abroad.</p><p>2. We saw increased productivity through technology advances, where we can do more with less labor. </p><p>3. We financialized our economy, where the financial sector has become a larger share of GDP</p><p>4. Corporate earnings as a share of GDP has steadily increased, which benefits shareholders more than labor. </p><p>5. Wages have not kept pace with inflation.  </p>",
