Interesting post, my friend. But I am an optimist and believe that Americans still have the American dream within them and that not all CEOs and powers that be are greedy enough to destroy the populace.
I still choose to believe that there are enough that will stand up and realize that their product won't sell until ALL workers are paid liveable wages.
It is only common sense..... the more the worker makes the more the worker can spend the more profitable your company becomes the more money you as the owner can make.
Less wages = eventual loss of disposable income, higher debt, lower credit available, fewer products bought.
Higher wages = greater disposable income, less debt, higher credit available, more product bought.
It's that plain and simple..... anyone arguing otherwise is completely and utterly greedy to the point they would destroy everything for their own selfish gains. And that is suicide.... whether they see it or not.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
