Just don't look at the auto unions to see what happens when employees keep getting paid more than they are worth, because you might open your eyes up to reality.
Do you honestly believe that people who work for evil corporations and normal companies alike don't often get annual salary raises, bonuses, and other added benefits (such as accumulation of vacation days)??? I'm not saying everyone does, but it's shocking that you think that is against the norm. It's actually quite normal for all of that to happen with employEE's.
You are all over the map on this one. What the hell is a fair salary? I thought that was the going wage for an employee, between what an employer offers, and and employee accepts as pay. That is the fair that happens out in the real world. Not only that, but as stated, raises are often given for not only inflation, but for performance and time in. The large majority are often great benefits as well. When companies do good, they often give bonuses. They also keep the employee, employed.
Why is that not fair in your eyes??? Or is it, but you just don't want to agree in those exact words because MSNBC taught you that the employer is evil?

Fair enough, I definitely have sour grapes from my experience with my previous employer. I'll save the sob story, but in the end I still feel employee's should be paid what the position's worth to the company as far as productivity rather then by how much the owner can save/ put in his own wallet (wallet, as profit for them self NOT r&d, or expansion funds, etc.). It's not right for any employer to be rolling in it while his employee's (foundation of the company) struggle.
Also, I don't watch MSNBC. Maybe I should start though
Stop watching FOX?
