Wages as a percent of the economy

Americans employed

The share of national income

Corporate profits

Corporate profits and profit margins are at an all-time high. Wages as a percent of the economy are at an all-time low. Fewer Americans are employed than at any time in the past three decades. The share of national income that American corporations are sharing with the people who do the work  ("labor") is at an all-time low.
