Why do you think wages aren't growing still?

Wage growth this year barely kept up with inflation. And when you consider that housing, healthcare, and education are still spiralling upward faster then it means that US workers are actually falling behind still. You'd think with such a tight job market that wages would start growing more, but they just aren't. Why do you think that is?

I don’t know....I fee pretty lucky because I’ve gotten one $1 raise this year, then we all got a .50 raise. And now I get another $1 raise in about a week! Some companies are just less greedy than others. I think it all boils down to greed.
