stox vs. wage

[Doug Henwood]

Ok, the promised chart, showing how much it would cost the average worker
to buy the S&P 500 from 1890-1999, is up at
<http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/StoxVsWage.html>. Plus two articles - the
social security article everyone's been talking about (ha ha)
<http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/AntisocInsec.html>, and an article on the
global financial crisis <http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/CrisisUpdate.html>
that pissed off Lou Proyect.

I normally wait a bit longer before posting articles to the website, but
the Social Security thing seems so important that politics overrode my
normal mercenary sentiments.

Plus updates to the employment, unemployment, and earnings stats (see
<http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Stats_comments.html> for links).

Coming soon: Liza Featherstone's article on organizing McDonald's.
