Their was also the greater shift to non-wage benefits. If you look at total compensation vs productivity the chart tracks much closer.

How much of the total compensation is health insurance premiums increasing, though? It doesn't seem like it would improve a worker's situation if the chart just shows that an increasingly greater percentage of their compensation has been funneled to insurance companies over the years . . .
