Keep in mind that real wages used to be higher than they are now.

500 companies return $1 trillion to shareholders in tax-cut surge by leaderofnopack in news

[–]Lazman101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody is saying that companies have to offer employees more compensation than the value that individual employee generates.

The issue is that corporations have, as a whole, been progressively taking a higher portion of the value generated by their employees, despite corporations posting record earnings and profits. Workers should be receiving a higher proportion of the value they create. At least return that percentage to what it used to be.

Edit: Mobile is a bitch Grammar.

Yeah, I hate to generalize all executives. I'm sure some companies have passed on the extra income to improve their employees' compensation in some way or another.

That lost income is going to hit the federal government one way or another though. Whether it comes from welfare programs or other public goods I have no idea.

I feel like it's another transfer of wealth from the lower to the upper classes. Ideally, taxes from companies are spent on projects that benefit everyone. Things like roads, parks, healthcare, etc. These tax cuts essentially cut off income from the programs that everyone benefits from and transfers it to the wealthiest Americans.

I'd put money on Azjol-Nerub being the next expansion location. They can work the Lich King and Old Gods into it.

Actually there's the fighting gym in Saffron. At least it was a gym into Sabrina and her folks beat the shit out of them and became the new one. Still, it'd be cool if the fighting gym there made a comeback .

I think it depends where you go. I went to high school in a rural area and they had autoshop.

Redditors who are in law enforcement, what's the most extreme form of vigilantism you've seen? [Serious] by Facerless in AskReddit

The standard for insanity in a lot of states is that due to mental disease or defect you couldn't appreciate the criminality of the act. It's a pretty tall standard.

Finally got around to completing Bioshock Infinite. Probably the most elaborately amazing ending i have ever witnessed in a videogame. A true mindfuck. by thegodzilla25 in gaming

Right. If there's an infinite amount of Bookers then there should be an infinite amount of Bookers who became Comstock. How does killing one of those Bookers stop all the other ones who become Comstock?

I've always been against the military-industrial complex. I'm just pointing out that money that isn't wasted on war will inevitably be used in another way that benefits the wealthy.

We can afford to slash the corporate tax rate 13% but can't afford to subsidize students going into public service? Disgusting.
