Granted, it’s far easier for a fella that’s already made his millions to suggest that others refuse the ability to pay their bills in the name of equality. But if enough people were to do it, often enough, it wouldn’t be long until shoring up a pay gap would prove less costly to companies than the lost hours their protesting employees are costing them.

This is exactly what Unions are supposed to be about. Closing ranks and working together. No wonder the Powers That Be™ are so against unions. Can’t have the royal subjects questioning the nobility’s divine right, can we?
