Only to the point of keeping the productive enough to maximize profit. The worker is the ULTIMATE beneficiary of “trickle down economics”. If a business is losing profit due to labor costs it makes NO difference how happy or unhappy the workers are., a different approach has to be taken towards labor costs. BTW, Dickens was a socialist.

Any raise or concession at all is "losing profit"! I'll bet you have professional corregidors come in and flog your drones twice a day to boost morale.
