What do you think of this statement?

So, it would be nice if we made the necessary changes voluntarily, before everything goes to hell.

And, besides, viewing employees as a very important corporate constituency isn't just good for the economy--it's also good for the soul. We're all in this together. And no one can do it alone.

So, how about it, corporate America?

How about taking a few percentage points of your record profits and use it to hire more employees and pay your existing employees more?

Henry Ford paid his employees more than he had to--so they could buy his cars.

And it worked out for him.

And "the Henry Ford way" is the way we're going to fix our economy.

I for one have been saying this for years, but the greed makes people not to be able to see anything but the numbers in their own private bank accounts.

The owners of "Olive Garden"...won't give their employees off for sick days.

Because of that, the employees come into work sick, contaiminate the food, and get the customers sick and they initiate class action lawsuits against the corporation.

I'd say "enlightened self-interest" among many of these big corporations is hard to come by.

I would agree, the all mighty dollar needs to end up in then pocket of the owners to make them happy. But someday they will realize that if the economy is twice as good they can make a lot less or each employee but still earn up with more if they have a need for more employees, and those employees have more money to spend.

Greed is a very bad thing when it destroys the golden egg. And that is exactly what is happening.

Is there something in the above that conservatives find a problem with? If so then let us know please? Why shouldn't the wealthy and corps do this to improve the future of our country and their future earning powers?

Henry Ford got praise and money from Adolph Hitler

Isnt it greed that makes people want money...like in Alabama when Democrats voted for JIM CROW laws in 2011..so that they could receive twice as much in tax revenue for their funding of schools....yes they did...racism for tax dollars now if that isnt the sickest use of greed...and it is the sickest use of greed. It as illegal and it was racist yet greed made Democrats do it anyway.

really, is that what it would take. Maybe the wealthy should pay for what they need, a way to operate, a source of material, a way to get product and ship products. They should pay for the education that is needed for the workforce they use to product their wealth. They should pay for the damage they create to the workers and the environment. They should pay for the military they use to create a market for their goods. They should pay for the govts that are needed to run the cities and states that are needed so they can have a workforce and a client to sell too.

Yep when the rich starts paying for their needs and stop trying to make ordinary people to pay for it then we will no longer have a need to take from the wealthy, as they will be doing what they should be doing on their own, PAYING THEIR OWN WAY.
