People ask why no one wants to work anymore. Maybe the better question is, why should we keep working for companies that keep cutting staff, benefits, and pay, while profits climb?

This video clearly explains how big policy decisions affect workers and why fair reforms benefit everyone.

I am a corporate accountant who works with corporate executives every day. They DO NOT care about you, and they WILL NOT care about you. The only solution to this problem is regulation that protects working class people by guaranteeing and protecting rights to unionize, implementing a more streamlined tax code that is actually enforceable for the wealthy elite (if you are a multi millionaire, you can hire a VERY expensive lawyer who can literally almost guarentee you pay ZERO taxes), and by making clearly corrupt conflicts of interest like corporate stock buybacks illegal.
@exploradormca
Those ladies guessed 3x more than the average employee!?!? 🤦🏼♂️ That type of lack of education and awareness is partly why we are where we are.
@richolman6800
As a business owner, it really makes me think about fairness in compensation. It's crazy seeing CEOs earn hundreds of times more than the average worker.

WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS AND NOTHING EVER CHANGES. NOTHING EVER CHANGES. NOTHING EVER CHANGES. NOTHING EVER CHANGES.
@kingslei617
All I need to hear is “that changed when Ronald Reagan…” and I already know what’s gonna happen.

America is now the Govt of billionaires, by billionaires, for billionaires.

I’m semi-retired and work in the Lowes garden center. This is very accurate of what’s happening at Lowes. This just reinforces my decades long belief that the Reagan era was the beginning of the redistribution of wealth from the working class to the wealthy.
@eddie918
Ngl a lot of issues we have today go back directly to the Reagan era. War on drugs, mass incarceration, “top down” economy, these wage gaps, market manipulation, the list goes on.
@jer1776
We should have a maximum wage tied to the pay of the lowest paid worker. If a CEO could only make 30x what the lowest paid worker made wages would rise real quick.
@elimcfly350
The people being questioned at the beginning are a perfect example of why we "allow" this. The average person doesn't have a clue how much they're being screwed.
@kathleenroberts6931
Poverty exists not because we can't feed our poor, but because we can't satisfy the rich. Unions lifted all boats! Tax the Wealthy 🧐 again. Breakup Monopolies, again. Regulations are required to protect the people from corporate abuse and environmental degradation. 💪 together 😊✌ 🗽 🌎 Thank you for covering this ❤
@HartleySan
"It used to be a literal crime, and now it's just business as usual." Well put.
@Vandus-ds
Just because it's legal, doesn't mean it's right. Laws these days tend to protect wealth and the status quo, and increasingly less people have wealth and benefit from the status quo. Time for real change.
@tygrahof9268
Credit cards used to charge up to 10% interest and any more WAS ILLEGAL!! Now it is 36%!!! Insanity.
@PamelaDritt
Notice that Bernie Sanders has fought against this kind of wealth transfer from lower classes to the very wealthy. Thank you for covering the important economic issues that major media tend to ignore.
