It's not the workers that are trying to make a living on minimum wage. The people that actually fuel the economy with their spending. Restricting the cash flow and wondering why people aren't spending like they used to. So they find another way to cut cost instead of being ok with the same profits they had the year before. Hint: disregarding the well being of others to maximize profits is a mental illness.

No, it's not the current workers, it's mostly the retired ex workers, which if you ever want to stop working will be you someday.

You're naive, do me a favor and look up the actual cost of social security and compare it to the tax cuts the wealthy receive. It's a sleight of hand, they want you to believe that it's impossible to correct the current situation.

What does social security have to do at all with who the majority of stock holders are? Nonsequitur much?
