		londons_explore on June 2, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: 2022Q4 real compensation revised downward to -4.7%... I guess it made sense when 80% of the population were farmers, and family farms involved 6 sheep that the 8 year old children liked to help milk... But in today's world of big-business farming, separating it out, either for stats or labor laws, makes no sense IMO.
