what thesis? The first link is a chart, and the second link is a collection of charts with a bunch of arrows, and a quote at the end. Neither be plausibly called a thesis, unless you're already to primed to believe it.
The fact that you are bringing up stocks as compensation says a great deal.
Cool so I can have healthcare while I starve naked on the street cause I can't pay for food,clothing or housing with my insurance card.
FRED... oh man. You mean the private business that was created specificity to rob every person in the united states says nothing is wrong. In fact it is great? Cool....

certainly not due to other factors, say NIMBYism or more urbanization (more people crammed into the same piece of land)

Well? What does it say?
>Cool so I can have healthcare while I starve naked on the street cause I can't pay for food,clothing or housing with my insurance card.
I'm not sure what your point here is. Are you upset that employers are compensating employees on a non-cash basis?

if you look more carefully you'll see the actual data is sourced from the BLS.
also, comparing productivity to hourly compensation is a bad comparison because it entirely omits other forms of compensation (stocks, healthcare). if i try to compare total compensation to productivty using FRED, I get: https://i.imgur.com/ohabUFu.png, which seems to say the opposite? Total compensation seems to have outpaced productivity growth, at least starting from 2000.
