You can make a small fortune with economics like that but you have to start with a big one. You keep it big by recouping losses from the workers.

a big one?

losses from the workers?

i'm finding hard to see the logic in your statement

what do the workers 'lose'? lose as compared to what?

Who explained the buttering to them and in what speech or press conference

"explained to them"

breathtaking condescension....

you think the workers are too stupid to vote in their own best interest?

I'd like to see the transcript and the graphs of American median wages. When middle America is jobless, they may never learn WHY they are jobless.

There are elasticities at play. The higher the wages, the fewer the jobs. So is your argument that wages should be higher or that jobs should be more plentiful?
