American workers' wages stagnant, even in a great economy: why?
#10
RE: American workers' wages stagnant, even in a great economy: why?
Some poeple are under the impression that a $3 raise for employees would make a pack of yellow #2 pencils cost $50.  If the margins on whatever you're making are that slim...you're doing it wrong..but hey, welfare for me and none for thee has become the dominant corporate ethos in the US.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
