$10/hr in the cheapest county, huh. I make $12/hr and I live in a fairly expensive county, I am able to make a living. I have healthcare, my own car, my own place, I eat well. Productivity went up because the business owner invested in technology to compete. If I ran a construction business and my rival invested in a backhoe and all my workers had shovels than I better find a way to get a backhoe because my competition is now more productive. They can do the job better and faster and cheaper. It isn't because the worker works harder, really they are working less now. Also increase productivity means increase profits meaning more investments and growth and jobs.
