Wage Stagnation

From http://www.epi.org/publication/charting-wage-stagnation/

“Wage stagnation” is the term used to describe the situation many workers find themselves in – no real change in their earning power over significant periods of time.
This is like getting stuck on the first rung of the ladder, unable to climb any higher.
