Fuck you, that is the problem with America right there. I am fucking tired of this bullshit that it is a crime to have a life outside of work. The issue is not work itself, the issue is PAY GAP. We had 30 years of "trickle down" and all that does is suck the money up to the top.
You tell me why workers should not have a say? Who the fuck do you think you are seriously? Now will you shut the fuck up if I show you rich people who agree with me that pay is not keeping up with the cost of living? Your bullshit isn't about worker productivity, it is the same old bullshit GOP line that is justifying indentured slavery.
Billionaire Nick Hanauer says to his own class workers are not making enough.

Now here is a CEO who if most of the country thought like him, America would NOT be in our current mess. Instead we have asshole companies like Walmart and greedy fucks like the Koch brothers monopolizing our economy. Now if this CEO can do the right thing and value workers there is no fucking excuse. Do not demonize the people that make the rich rich and do the bulk of the work.

There is more than one class in this country and it is way past time the top fucking accept they do not have the right to dictate to the rest of us.
If you want to justify slave wages and increase poverty and become a third world sweat shop country, you can. I wont. Now, I could give one fuck less what you think of me personally or this post. But those links above are messages from successful business owners who understand we as a collective society cannot keep exploding the pay gap.
So go work for one of them.
