by putting two unrelated curves on a chart you are the one embarrassing yourself. How about a curve comparing oyster harvests to the income of native americans living on reservations?

One could just as easily show corelation of the increased use of computers, the increase in fuel effeciency of cars or the increased availability of new technology allowing production per worker to increase. You simply show close (but not exact) corelation of two factors, but not causation.
They are not unrelated at all though, it goes EXACTLY as expected, you can also track it on the way up ... Unionization happened in the later 30s and 40s and created the worlds best middle class.
You have a theory, you have rational expectations and the evidence points it out ... its not JUST corrolation, we have a causal explination.
