      Right, we have double the work force now thanks to women’s rights. I’m not saying we shouldn’t have women’s rights. Every human should have the same rights. I’m just saying that definitely played a factor in wages.

      America spent the majority of WW2 selling their entire manufacturing output to every developed country in the world.

      Then they continued on from ww2 being the only country to make a profit and still have the factories working.

      They made a fortune from WW2 and after, it could be argued its the best thing that ever happened to that country.

      It took a while for other countries to catch up.

      This makes sense, and as far as explanations go it’s better than most running around on the internet.

      Yet, it was a very abrupt change. Did the US population have that abrupt change to reflect there? On society it’s common that a very steep change leads to spread-down consequences; the reverse almost never happens.
