So to ensure you are employed and grossly overpaid for your deficient skills, inferior productivity and negative labor ROI to the firm, the rest of us are forced to pay more for our product purchases and service offerings? So, my economic benefit, and that of every other American consumer, is corrupted so that your economic benefit is maximized? My family, my wallet, my consumer priorities are seized to underwrite yours?
