Higgins, this is at the root of your "Why is life for the working class more difficult today?" Everyone wants more for less: employees, unions, management, executives, customers, etc. This, along with many other factors, is putting the nation into hardship. Laying the blame at corporate America is short-sighted. It would be like laying blame entirely on the Federal Reserve for creating the housing debacle. It's never so simple.
