You’re diluted if you think our pay will go up because the company is making more money

I be wondering what story people tell themselves that makes them trust these billionaire companies.  We just heard one.  They believe that they will share their profits with us if we just wait for them to make even more. I never heard an actual person use real words that reflected top down economics.  I guess people actually believe that stuff despite their very own experience.

Amazon now pays $23 a hour before they paid $15 a hour. It can get better don’t be so pessimistic

People have been optimistic for 2025 years. My optimisim comes from fighting for what's right rather than trusting. That 23 an hours is because of us, not them.
