It's important to note that, in the US, worker __compensation__ has increased steadily. However, __wages__ have not.

A lot of this has to do with employer provided health insurance and ballooning healthcare costs, which are fairly specific problems to the US.

Housing and education costs have also increased much faster than overall worker compensation.
