Is There a Downtrend in Compensation?

CNN's John Avlon says he was wrong to say that benefits are not worth more than they were decades ago. Avlon: "There really has been an improvement in medical care over the last few decades" But apart from that, companies are spending money on it, and so that's why you have to include it, Avlon adds. The New York Times' Richard Wolff also gave Avlon a grade of A-plus for his debate performance.
