Corporate profits are higher than ever largely because corporations have been able to get greater productivity out of workers without increasing pay. If wages had kept up with productivity, profits wouldn't be nearly as high.
the reason this is a mystery to so many mainstream economists is because they don't want to reconcile with one simple fact: in order for profits to keep going up, worker wages must be suppressed while also increasing productivity.
That, and they don't want to/are psychologically incapable of the self-awareness required to admit their own complicity in the increasing oppression and exploitation of the very people without whom everything falls apart.
Why do you think so many billions of dollars are being spent on AI development? Many see it as the key to ever increasing profits, because the worker, and their pesky demand for adequate compensation can be removed entirely.
Spot on again.
Except corporate profits are higher than they've ever been. Only thing falling is the workers' share of the obscene dragons hoards of riches.
Yes. undoes edit 😁
