Looks like we're making progress. At least you're willing to admit these are no longer anecdotes.

As for an answer to your question:

Rising pay, due to more jobs available and more demand for labor will be a factor for all US companies to deal with. See? Its not that hard. Those additional tax payers with increasing wages should bode well for all your concerns about a flush US Treasury.

Also, don't recall any posts that you may have made during the Obama years about budget deficits and spiraling debt. Why the sudden concern?
