The historic UAW strike puts an exclamation point on more than a decade of efforts by Washington lawmakers to narrow the pay gap between top executives and workers.

Presentation of that math does. I’d wager you could take one or two off years in that trend and say “look! No increase. Y’all are worried about nothing.”
Wage disparity is one of the biggest issues in the American workforce today.
Believe me, I’m extremely fuckin’ aware. The guy above me said math isn’t political. And that’s true. But the presentation of the results is, however. The “left leaning” specification helps show who’s presenting the data, as opposed to a right, corporate, or other spin on the presentation.
Companies, hell whole industries, regularly misrepresent data to make a point and further that gap, or otherwise increase profits, etc.
Also it seems like the definition of “executive compensation” is ambiguous and could be calculated in different ways. So the data could differ too.
