UPS’s tentative labor deal with the Teamsters hasn’t even taken effect yet. But it has already taken a bite out of its earnings and revenue, as both fell in the second quarter ahead of the deal being reached.

Of-fucking-course they could. Any able-bodied person can. That’s what unskilled labor means.
Do you believe that unskilled laborers deserve to be paid $19M/year?
Of course not, because “living wage” isn’t a real number, it’s just a concept. Whatever it is, you could double or even triple it with what these workers are being paid.
…so you think small towns don’t get packages? This is the argument you want to go with?
I think the idea is more that the CEO is not really worth 19m a year. A pay gap makes sense, but it has ballooned to ridiculous levels
And yet the separation between rich and poor has grown exponentially over the past few decades. I don’t understand how this position is defensible. Fairness is needed not the continued exploitation of those not lucky enough to fall into wealth. And that’s all it is with millionaires, gambling, exploiting and a little luck. Every single one of them.
