[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 1961086, member: 56035"] well...i mean that was the social security administration, and the bureau of labor statistics. theyre pretty official. it could be skewed in a way (like the way unemployment numbers are skewed), but i tend to trust those numbers, they are quoted every where. well ultimately if you really want people to be paid more, you have give them decision making power at the workplace so they will vote to pay themselves more for their work, and maybe vote to pay someone else less like the CEO, or whoever. "it’s not only the historical left that has touted worker ownership. As proof, he offers this 1987 quote from Republican icon [B]Ronald Reagan[/B]: “I can’t help but believe that in the future we will see in the United States and throughout the Western world an increasing trend toward the next logical step, employee ownership. It is a path that befits a free people.” i agree with reagan.
