Higher wages are not the primary reason for inflation.

Some people are just more fucking resilient but arguably dumb

It's astonishingly more complicated than just if you put time in you get time out

Getting higher wage jobs(as in a different job, not the same job but with a higher wage). Tied in with improved productivity that eliminates low wage jobs and allows for more efficiency..

Higher wages (assuming no productivity increase) is just one factor that affects inflation.

Of course, it's the one that the owner and governing classes want you to obsess over, as it does the usual job of keeping the poors fighting amongst themselves ('they shouldn't pay burger flippers a living wage, it makes my burgers more expensive!'), rather than thinking about profiteering, monetary policy, or other costs.

By being able to do (or convince employers that they can) things that a fewer people can do.

Unfortunately, I dont think that well ever reach a point where the lowest paid jobs are still well-paid.

Corporations will continue raising prices to make up the small amount of profit they lose until someone forces them to stop. Good luck with that

There's a lot of connecting reasons, all stemming from the ruling elite, of course.

All signs point to that once they have no more to give, the rich would prefer for them to die
