<<When, tell me when, have the rich and powerful ever been fair to the worker.

Silicon Valley and Redmond Washington have minted quite a few non union worker millionaires, to name just a couple of instances. I wouldn't mind being so "unfairly exploited"..>>

Boy does that ever miss the point. Millionaires can take care of themselves and there are not enough resources on earth for everyone to be a millionair.

The concern is for the 99% of the middle class just trying to get by. Decent wages for bank clerks, farm workers, fry cooks and manufacturing folks, coal miners and laborers, and construction workers and nurses.
