Do you listen to Limbaugh? I wouldn't be shocked.
#1. Some people ARE "forced to work there" because there isn't anything else available to them. There are millions in that situation.
#2. The economy relies on people being able to afford to buy shit! The economy is sluggish. People buying shit will help the recovery. When people get a raise, they have more $$$ to spend - and when
poor people get a raise, nearly all that money goes back into the economy, because they
need things, (and of course they don't have offshore tax shelters to jam the money into like the rich do). The corporations are hoarding cash. Cash that should be circulating.
