This Dip Shit says,"then they must work harder!" It is about unequal bargaining power due to their successful war on unions/labor. They use the mass media they own to brain wash people to be anti-union, anti-regulation, anti-tax, and anti-government! Another full of shit government shill with no statistics to back up anything he said! Fuck this guy!
