Not sure that would make sense. And it probably would appear like communism to the US, because one company or industry increasing the GDP would then translate into benefitting the workers of all other companies/industries. Also, if GDP decreases, salary would have to decrease as well.


I don't think you understand what I said. Instead of nominally inflation which is gamed, use total wages as a percentage of GDP.


Use it as what? As a measure of inflation? I don’t quite see the relation to the value of currency then, which is what inflation is supposed to measure.
