Do I need to keep going to explain why it's unfair that they get their 73% raises from 2010 to 2012 while they later ask us for pay cuts? Is that you BH?



That's all great and I agree but where this argument falls apart in this particular instance is that management did not provide any capital. They are labor as well.
That is a completely different point. I never said management provided capital. I said capital came before labor, and that the purpose of labor is to make money for the capitalist.
