Wages need to go up in the US. Elon and Trump aren't going to do anything about that. There was a time I agreed with you and shared your opinion. I would have said exactly the same thing you are saying to me if someone had made the comment I made.
But I've changed over the years. Wages haven't gone up. The middle class is shrinking. The middle class is suffering from inflation. People can't afford to buy homes.
I myself am doing just fine. I'm still going out to eat for lunch every day even though you can't eat a burger for less than 15 bucks. I'm just worried about my kids and the future of the country.
In my opinion, more corporate profits need to go to wages at the expense of stock buybacks and executive compensation. The only way I see that happening anytime soon is through unions and the people taking the power back. Politicians are all bought by big corporate money so they aren't going to do anything about it.
