Costco is so greedy. Employees deserve more of that profit!

Profit = income - expenditures

Record profits = (highly productive workers) - (low wages)

It is a fundamental and indisputable fact. Record profits can only be achieved when the workers are paid unfairly for their contributions.

Workers deserve better.
