"Sorry, It's Not a 'Law of Capitalism' That You Pay Your Employees as Little as Possible. It's..."

50. No we get

Serious about creating industry in the USA that offers good wages and an oprotunity for upward mobility.

Right now there is no path from cashier to middle class for many workers. The factories are gone, we don't make anything anymore here, the things we do make here we bring in forgien labor to do it for us on both the high and low end.

To change this we have to reshape how we see the value of each other. We also may have to look at technology and its disruptive nature as it relates to labor. I know this is controversial but we must look at this. Many banks and even credit unions are now wear housing tellers in central call centers and using terminals in the branches. They are able to reduce the number of tellers dramatically and provide faster service but they also displace the most economically fragile workers. Same thing at stores with self checkout systems and order systems. What happens to these workers?
