It's the middle class that needs to rethink their value, who said capitalism wasn't going to bring in a vicious cycle of poor and rich ? Greed is an issue since a lot of big US companies are keeping the cash rather than investing it for some reason ... |
Cheaper employment = / = lower prices. Cheaper employment = more money staying at the top, which as you said is not being circulated through the economy proportionally. It is literally the rich competing among themselves while more of America winds up on the streets.
If you INCREASE wages for everyone below the elite, guess where that money can only come from? Guess who all of a sudden has more buying power? Guess who's actually going to spend that money and reinvest in our economy? Tell me what is the point in having more money than you literally know what to do with. I understand that the idea of limitless financial potential is tantalizing, but without regulation or even just responsibility we quite literally end up with the current state of affairs.
