You seem to be forgetting the 10 other reasons why relative wages are falling behind aside from ignorance
In many places they wouldn't be falling behind if dirt poor people weren't frothy-mouthed cheering for trust fund inheritor babies who only pay attention to hot escorts and dad's hedge fund lawyers.
