Corporations have schemed to keep wages/benefits low & they rely on the government to supplement the pay of their employees with Medicaid & Food stamps.

The GOP’s “big, beautiful bill” would be the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in U.S. history.
On average, someone in the top 0.1% would gain around $390,000 next year.
But someone in the bottom 20% would lose $820, and nearly twice as much—$1,545—in 2033.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
