End game is to pay us less and for the rich to take more...
once SS and medicare are gone, those things won't need to be deducted from our pay checks.

So rather than let the employees keep the additional money, they will cut that "additional" pay then say, "well you were never going to get it anyway, because it was a scam!"

Welcome to the further dumbing down of our society. It's like the old society, only a hell of a lot more stupid and a lot more cruel.

8. Years.
When they own everything, they own us too. That's the ultimate end. Capitalism keeps going until it gets there.

6. Which will help their bottom lines, for now
Until there's no one left with enough money to buy their shit; then the whole thing collapses on itself.

9. They'll have to lower or get rid of minimum wage then.
Many areas even skilled trades that require multiple certifications are only offering minimum or barely above it.
They're already using the busted economy to pay as little as they're legally allowed.
