A fair contract certainly allows people to work at a wage level that provides decent housing, nutrition and health care - and education for their kids.

The people I come in contact with are interested in working hard and producing a good product (or building), or in keeping people and property safe, protecting the health of their patients, or providing other services that people expect to find in the marketplace.

You appear to have a warped view of the people who go to work daily to try their best to earn a living. Indeed, you must really have a troubled soul to carry such hatred toward other people who are not as "good" as you. Was all that money really worth it?
I think the false assumption you have is that the people you describe are the norm in the work place. I have absolutely no problem with those you describe making a good living.
But, having employed at least 50 people and likely more over a period of thirty years I can tell you that finding employees that fit the liberal description of the American worker are next to impossible to find.
