Am I seeing a fellow georgist in the wild? That's great!

I do agree that these monopolies are rent seeking and we should probably do something about it

> Maybe Henry Ford was on to something when he shocked the world by paying his employees enough to afford the product they were making (more than doubling many workers' wages)...

This reminds me of this too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvHwyrem24M (CEO who gave all his employees minimum $70,000 paycheck thriving six years later)

Everyone bet that they would fold but they are doing stronger than ever. People took voluntary pay cuts when the company was under pressure and they even gifted their CEO their favourite car out of their own geneorsity!

I always smile when I watch this video. (the company's gravity payments)

> The class conflict shouldn't be between workers and employers

I feel like the problem's becoming that the employers are themselves rent seekers (so think working at google,facebook,twitter) or the VC companies which want to build more Google's and facebooks and twitters but not companies like the one that I mentioned in the video
