Companies would have to pay us all more if there was reasonable competition. I would feel a lot more empowered in my corporate career if I could leave for an hourly job and still afford life.

I work in healthcare at a private practice clinic, we all want raises but Insurance decreased payouts this year. I can feel the wage stagnation coming

Prohibit money speculation, capital gains, and usury, and move workers into the investor column. Things will balance naturally when money is given for labor, not market manipulation.

we need to set min wage and change the law for automatic readjustments annually to inflation.
we need to set a max % that those at the top of the company can only make 10x lowest employees

The new golden age is here. We have 2 classes-1 very rich and the rest of us struggling to buy food and gas.
