What’s there to explain? The corporate fat cats have caused enough damage to the working class. There’s only so much a person can take and be told to smile/grin and bear it. Record profits are not a thing we should be hearing about over and over and over again. The C suite executives should be taking pay cuts, not the people that can barely afford heating/ air condition or food. Corporate pay is out of control.

This is sickening. 3% raises every 2 years. Ridiculous. But it’s so much worse. It reads like a horror story.
An industry veteran, 23 days working in a row, still struggling to pay grocery bills.
98% expected uptime on the factory floor, in some cases without climate control where the interior of the facility is at 120 degrees.
It’s just pathetic that this is how workers are treated in this century. We made such massive improvements in the 20th century. And now we’re just slipping right back. Literally allowing children to take on overly dangerous jobs and treating every worker like disposable trash.
The people making bank on the backs of these workers should be ashamed.
