Corporations will have to accept non-record breaking profit margins to beat inflation, says regular Joe
b-b-but the ecomony!!1
This is what Brixit was all about. British corporations wanted to slash wages but couldn’t under the EU because British labor would just leave. But now their stuck and now the employers are going full mask off
It took me embarrassingly long to realize you meant the British labor force would leave, as in they’d get jobs in France or something, rather than the British LaborParty would leave (and go where, I couldn’t figure out)…
Oh fun, a real life prisoner’s dilemma.
I bet we can all guess whether employers hold up their end of the bargain by reining in profits. Gotta make sure those shareholders get theirs.
Lmao what a load of bs shit
Accept lower pay deals… Are prices going to decrease in the short term? Nope.
They expect people to live on bread and water because they fucked everyone too hard.
Fuck them
Yeah right. We’ve had next to no wage increases over the last 15 years but workers still carry the can. Totally ignore the energy companies raising their prices significantly based on costs yet still make huge record profits. Ditto supermarkets.
ill accept lower pay rises when I see lower profits, and CEOs refusing rises / giving back money to pay employees instead.
Let’s seize the means of production and find out for ourselves how to beat inflation.
Haha. What else? How about lowering taxes on corporations and ultra wealthy? That obscene wealth will eventually trickle down, you know!
Okey dokey, you go first.
If it is anything like here in the US, it is price gouging causing a large chunk of inflation.
I tried to refuse pay for on call recently as it has tax implications that I didn’t want to do deal with, but my employer refused.
So, yeah, take it up with them you bunch of bankers.
