If you are on the top, you are doing better. If you are middle class, your income is down. No word in the article regarding the poor though. If this reality continues, why would anyone expect people to continue to support the current system?

Overall, salaries and wages grew 2.1%. But the super-rich saw an 11.2% hike, and those just below them enjoyed a 4.6% increase.
But the middle class saw a drop of 0.7% in wages.
