Wages down for 90% of Pa. workers

The rich really are getting richer in Pennsylvania.

And, according to a new report on wages, everybody else is getting poorer.

When adjusted for inflation, wages for the bottom 90 percent of workers in the state fell between 2004 and 2005, the report released last weekend by the Harrisburg-based Keystone Research Center said. The decline came despite rising profits and productivity, and it affects workers at all education levels.
