British public: The cost of living crisis is crushing working people.
Nigel: What if minimum wageworkers make even less?
Many of the companies paying workers minimum wage make billions in profit every year. Why do the Reform Party want to squeeze the working class instead of taxing the super rich?

No Kings I agree with. There is potential for them to keep getting bigger. I don't believe wageworkers will participate in a strike any time soon. I wouldn't at the moment. I need every gig I can get.

Tho' I can never find it when I want to quote it, years ago I read a paper describing survey results from US Americans describing tax policy as they understood it.
The results were bonkers.
Nearly all surveyed thought the wealthy paid WAY more & middle & low wageworkers paid WAY less than they did.

Had kept my sub to avoid punishing the wageworkers at the paper.

I have been much enjoying Todd DePastino's Citizen Hobo The material on the tramps of the early 20th century is especially interesting. The shift from an agrarian economy meant that much labor was necessarily transient, giving rise to workers camps and skid rows.

In the years following the Civil War, a veritable army of homeless men swept across America’s "wageworkers’ frontier" and forged a beguiling and bedeviling counterculture known as "hobohemia." Cel...

A lack of funding for scientists & doctors & imports certainly won't cascade through society destroying "wageworkers," and once those small businesses are gone there will definitely be no one left to oppress workers. Thanks for thinking this all through so thoroughly.

The typical employers of minimum wageworkers—like restaurants and retail—aren’t the same companies seeing explosive profit growth, like Apple, Nvidia, or Microsoft.

Factories where "#UndocumentedImmigrants (#TemporaryImmigrants)" work in "#Special Zones" offer lower wages than China, making it easier to secure "#Low-WageWorkers," which is why companies are competing to build factories there.
