The American "Labour Party", primarily politically active automotive unionization, believes it's perfectly acceptable to have two sets of standards in how they pay their workers. Senior members are afforded lucrative salaries approximately 400% higher than their younger workforce. You want to complain about stagnation? Perhaps, start there.

who is that? cute boy.

Should we also mentioned that coupled with salary disparities of 400% that the long-term benefits of working under the same unions, for younger workers, comes nowhere near the pension obligations of up to 3%/salary/year-worked they over-promised their senior workforce? It's all fun and games to point the finger at private entrepreneurs, and government entities, but when the third-party responsible for ensuring YOUR interests are being looked after are only looking to secure their own retirement after a lifetime of "living in the now" it becomes a little more difficult to pinpoint the exact source of the tumult.

I was too young to understand it at the time, but when my grandmother used to go into a rant about how her peers, and my parents, were banking their retirement off the backs of my generation and my children's she really wasn't kidding. Sage woman, grandma was. RIP. Love ya grams. Lung Cancer. Last conversation was me pleading with her to continue fighting. She told me she wasn't going to piss away the small estate she worked her whole life to build, and leave nothing for her children, fighting a fight that was inevitably going to end in death anyways. Aside from my uncle, a Truck and RV repair business owner, her other two children have already pissed away everything "living in the now", and will leave nothing to us besides debt.

Yeah, it was so much better when it was public property, under the jurisdiction of the King, and the Church.

How, exactly, did Lennin's rule differ from that of a king, again?
