I will admit to being cold and heartless, if you admit to wanting others to do your "heavy lifting". To me it seems that there are millions of people who share your view. If a few of you got together and bought Circuit City or started your own store, you could run it the way you want paying the janitor the same as the CEO, and not worry about profits. If all your friends bought from that store you can drive all the other "irresponsible" folks out of business. So, my point is - stop complaining about stuff in your control. If hourly workers are under paid, they should do something about it.
And please don't tell me it can not be done. there are mutual insurance companies, owned by policyholders. There are credit unions owned by depositors, etc, and the funny thing is often these companies struggle to get members who think like you do.
