Unchecked government intervention and its effect of sharply lower real wages for large numbers of workers must certainly be considered as a leading cause of the premium placed by McWane's workers on additional real income—to the point of outweighing serious risk to life and limb. The government’s mindless binges on costly legislation that it stupidly believes are paid for out of profits, are driving large numbers of American workers back to the lower standard of living and poorer working conditions of an earlier day. The soviet union, nazi germany, north korea, pol pot's cambodia come to mind. Industrial accidents, poverty, misery etc are increased by government intervention, not reduced.
