Reply #8: The myth has worked on the willfully stupid for 30 years. Why stop now?

Hell, they can now shit up the economy until it's almost beyond repair, blame it all on "yewn-yuns" and "workers' stupid need fer a livin' WAGE", and the public (to no one's amazement) goes along with it, blames themselves and gives corporations and the wealthy a PASS!! It's flawless!

Yeah, and also because the bought-and-paid-for Fourth Estate won't ever, EVER call them on this myth . . . if they know what's GOOD for them.

What the American public doesn't seem to get is that tax cuts will never be a substitute for a living wage job, which hasn't exactly been part of the corporate agenda for years now.
