The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr.
Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet.
See the problem?

“Our game made 350m, which is unacceptable. We aimed for 500m”
Bitch how the fuck do you need a 60m dollar salary then don’t have the balls to even address your employees when you call layoffs due to unrealistic underperformance.
The blueprints are there.
Civil service has no need for a leech called an owner to siphon profits out of the system for just themselves.
That capitalist system’s core principle of an ownership class and a working class means it is inherently incongruent with equity and equality.
SHOULDN'T
EXIST
Do I see a problem with people willingly working at these places when they can go somewhere else? No
Do I see a problem here? Yes, you're all ungrateful for what you have and spend money on junk you don't need.
Too bad.
“attacking a state authority to which one owes allegiance … attempting to overthrow its government”
⚖️Time for TREASON charges against the illegal, insurrectionist government that is destroying our democracy and trashing our Constitution
Screw that.

To a Taco Bell worker it represents 20 minutes of work
America is being ground into the dust.
Once billionaires decided they WANTED IT ALL-they made it so much worse!
Now, they want to take away healthcare for people that can't afford it on their own...to make a few more bucks!
Why do seniors and disabled people have to "spend down" their assets to qualify for Medicaid and we allow greedy billionaires in cabinet?
No one that wealthy represents me or my interests. So let's not allow them to represent us.

I can guarantee you that it is far more than 50%
These aren’t the only ones either.
Which is close to the cost of living adjusted wage / buying power that is equivalent to the mid 70s.

Listen to the substance of their complaints and you'll find that we agree on a lot - just not the path towards real solutions
Don't count us out!

The US wages are freely negotiated, but negotiation is not between equals.

where i live i was seeing salaries in the range of $370k ($177/hr). meanwhile $20/hr is $41,600 per year. even with higher minimum pay, NS would make 10x what the peasants do

Thanks for taking a look!
This extreme wealth in the hands of a few is untenable, and (one imagines) a national security issue.
There will never be enough money to satisfy those who have most of it.
It will implode.
Unsustainable!
I would say NO.
I do want to end these companies
Boycott!
National strike!
It’s the only thing we have to fight back.
They are currently taking over everything, getting everything privatized and taking bribes from foreign adversaries
Labor is the only thing that matters at the end of the day, and nobody cares.
CEO/President/CoBoard salaries w/incentives & stock options.
vs. avg hourly rate/salary.
Start with the Fortune 500 companies.
The Age of Empire is upon us as the Robber Barons steal public lands.
How do YOU say 'theft'??

Instead, they buy yet another mansion in a desperate attempt to fill the holes in their hearts.
Organize!
[A message to the U.S. Congress, 3 December 1861.
Both Bezo (who really doesn’t run Amazon) is responsible for about 1.5 million worldwide.
Walmart employs about 2.1 million.
Bezo and Walton’s take all the risk, so that comes with comensarate compensation.
Want to make more money, improve your skills and take some risk.
They prefer staffing with temp agencies to avoid paying benefits, but hang the carrot of FT employment over the heads of the temp workers. Gross.

I worked the fulfillment center in '98 (before any profit & crazy stock splits)
They let us go at 6 months, beginning of shift, but we were expected to stay all day to collect pay. I walked out strategically, knowing precisely when and how to make my displeasure abundantly clear.

Self employment was the only way I could survive as a single parent. Schedule, money, etc.
You'll never make money on what YOU can produce hourly. Real money is made exponentially.
None of it will stop till we as non insurrectionist make em want to make ✌️ ☮️ 🕊

The whole system is twisted, vile, cruel and corrupt.
Let's not forget about JP Morgan's trillion dollar business who pays a starting wage of an estimated $17.00/hr "ish"
WThay is really at play? They have been riding our backs for far too long
GENERAL STRIKE!
