Been runn...Do we Stifle Greed or do we empower it !<br />Been running into many who find it very difficult to see people working for business types who make huge profits , yet pay very low wages forcing tax payers to provide very costly social supports like housing and heat top up. And a requirement to ask the Salvation Army or Harvest share to provide food basics , while profit take climbs with no policy to force any profit share back to workers getting the worker off social needs .<br />Many will say ANY JOB IS A JOB . but neglect to be concerned about the high levels of profit take that tax payers are being forced to subsidize in more ways than just tax cuts.<br />Some will indicate that some dollars get put back by SOME not ALL to needs in the area. But in reality one can start up a biz, take profit and more profit with no rules to halt tax dollars that go to workers needlessly .<br />So do we continue on this path , more "low prices " that force us to pay again for costly social supports. Or do we now ask by policy or voting with our pocket books, insisting at various profit levels that more profit go back to workers , getting off of needs rolls.<br />I know that the FEDS , The PROVINCE and local politicians need to find ways BUT the most effective would be for US to insist on a long term requirement for profit sharing that would save us dollars in the long term and help workers get a better feeling of worth and more.<br />We have a choice to pay once and then again for support provisions or We insure that we do not pay for overt profit takes , saving valuable tax dollars to be better spent !<br />Your ideas , ideals next <br />http://www.parrysound.com/opinion-story/4321753-profit-sharing-to-curb-social-support-needs-of-workers/<br />Thomas Dowswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04154445162565305301noreply@blogger.com
