Is it just me, or does this agreement sound like weak sauce? 8% over 3 years? That's barely keeping up with 'ideal' inflation let alone if it jumps again.

Is this on top of a COLA clause or something?

Something weird is going with them wages across the world.

Every country is actively not permitting free market for labor. Corpos colluding and when people stand up, government sides with industry.

Living standards are on decline across developed world majority while economy is growing technically.... Where is the surplus value going, daddy?
