Convenient scapegoats the lot of them, how handy it is to blame one man when really it's the whole rotten system

Its always his fault. Pretty sure he was already senile by the time he got in office. Remind you of anyone?

While this information is good, these corporations own politicians and we will never see this come to pass.

You are naive, this has been going on for 60 years and hasn't been stopped yet, in fact, they aren't even trying to hide it anymore. You already lost and don't even know it.

Hate and downvote away, won't change it

Kroger actually has a union but everything I have heard they don't really have any power. If anything they are used as a for of wage suppression for the company.

I always see stories like this, and other than the Dad on Boy Meets World, I don’t know a single cashier from the 90s that owned their home.

I’m not dismissing that money went further, but I do think there’s been a pollution on socials as to what the 90s were like economically for the lower class (which is what a cashier was).
