Labor Day 2004 reveals a split view of American workers
The piece contrasts optimistic notes on productivity and wage gains with a counterpoint that real wages have fallen for the median worker since last year. It cites unemployment at 5.5 percent in July, rising consumer confidence, and record homeownership, while warning that wage growth has lagged despite 4.7 percent GDP growth. Mark Weisbrot and Mark J. Perry are cited as authors.

Labor Day Outsourcing Fuels CEO Pay Boom
Sarah Anderson argues outsourcing shifts profits to chief executives rather than American workers. CEOs at top service outsourcers earned an average 10.4 million last year, far above the 8.1 million average for U.S. firms, with George David and Lawrence Ellison among the highest earners. She calls for fair pay and for bosses to tighten their belts.
