They should have paid the people whose labor they used to get rich more. A lot more. It's that simple. Labor is the source of wealth. We have no problem with people having nice things. But a lot more people should profit from their labor.






So I'm guessing you don't believe in supply and demand?

Do you think a business should pay more wages than supply and demand says?

That's not a really good business model. Pay employees what they are worth. Low education and low skilled workers are a dime a dozen. But you think they should be payed more than their market value why?

Someone won't pay more than the market value for the thing that worker is making.

You want to be paid more? Make yourself worth more. Get an education. Gain skills. Be great at what you do.

Want to be paid less? Be undependable. Be unskilled. Don't care about your work. Make yourself easily replaceable.

I believe in supply and demand. Products and services should be provided based on the demand for them.

I have no issue with some things left to the market like: entertainment, hobbies and collectibles, but food, clothing, shelter, health care cannot be solely left to the market.

If you want to eat steak and lobster then fine. But we can have market driven steak and lobster and still have enough for every to eat healthy food.
