Productivity has nothing to do (usually) with labor hours.

you're missing the point, as usual. you keep pretending the middle

labor wages.

OK, I agree with you - your elected government should control your wages -
how much should you be paid? How much should you pay for an automobile, a
toaster, cheap wine and lottery tickets?

uh no. the govt has been gutted WRT worker rights. few countries in
the western world are as anti-labor as the US.

companies and their stockholders control wages. stockholders aren't
middle class.
