Yes, crack open an intro to macroeconomics textbook and it has to discuss total factor productivity (technological progress) in the Cobb-Douglas production function, and its short run and long run effects on wages, or it's quite easy to connect the dots if it doesn't discuss that relationship directly. You'll get medium run too if you go a little beyond classical. It's funny someone claims to be writing economics papers but refuses to spend 100 hours, maybe less, to learn the fundamentals of macroeconomics as understood by everyone working in a related field.

No shit, me neither, I read a couple macroeconomics textbooks at the age of 30 and now I wouldn't make arrogant and obviously wrong claims like the above. And I don't have the hubris to publish a paper.
