The situation with these workers is like a poker game in which one player has won all the money and no one else has a chance of getting back in the game.

Capitalism is one of the forces that has made our country great. But it has both good and ill effects just like unionism, patriotism, religion, conservatism, socialism, ect, ect, ect. Greed and blind ideology are the two greatest detriments to society IMO.

"I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again."
