You get raises based on cost of living and job type demand, not because the goverment raised interest rates.

i fail to see how this is good for the average person. isnt it better to be in a market with high pay and employee leverage (not too mention consumer power due to low interest rates and relativly higher disposable income levels)?

dont get me wrong, as an employer, it would be nice to have some of the leverage back, but at the end of the day, i am a regular joe like the most of us, just a fancier title.
