Ah yes, if companies made more money, they'd share more with the workers. That explains why corps have been making record profits and... Nothing has improved for workers.
At some point you just have to ask whether these people are disconnected from reality.
we've past that point. We don't need to ask anymore, really. FWIW, I blame the sabotages public education
Public education and cognitive dissonance.
These people realize there's a problem but they'd rather believe the bullshit their side spews than accept reality
The crazy thing is seeing people who work for these companies for 30 years straight, got treated kind of decently like 25 years ago, now the company has grown over 100x in size and their pay and benefits haven't even doubled.
Yet they still talk about how taxes are the problem. And that things will trickle down. They've literally been in that system for 30 years of it failing to work and they still think it's the right answer.
I can excuse people having their ideas twisted about something they don't really know about. But if you're that deep into it, have literal experience showing it not working, and you still buy into that shit and vehemently defend it despite facts being presented that show otherwise... Yeah, there's no excuse anymore. Now you're just a fucking idiot voting against your own best interest.
No need to ask that when you've been paying attention for 16+ years.
the haven't made enough money yet, it's that simple.
