“Starvation wages” should not be a thing. Many people awakening now to the unfairness of a system which keeps them limited to economic conditions that obstruct rather than promote their advancement in the direction of their dreams. Economic injustice is an invisible set of chains

Let's be clear. The problem in America is not that unemployed workers are receiving an extra $300 a week in emergency benefits during a horrific pandemic. The problem is that too many employers in America are exploiting their workers by paying starvation wages with no benefits.

People working at jobs they hate, to prevent themselves from being homeless, is not freedom. That’s why I’m in favor of a generous Universal Basic Income that would give everyone the freedom to do what’s truly meaningful to them.

This is why the globalist criminals shut down the public sphere with a "pandemic". Wake up left. You have been played again. Remember WMD ?

It has been systematic for years, way back in the "good old days" the wages were only part of the deal, with companies taking care with solid 401k.. then wall st was allowed to raid these pension funds by weak politicians, and companies focus on todays profits.
