If they don’t give you decent health care and a retirement plan then we’re just doing the minimum. Why would we work harder for less in return?

Don't even do the minimum. Will McDonald's give give you half a of a cheeseburger if you only pay half? Will a bank only seize half your house if you start paying half your mortgage payment? Why would we give them half-effort for a penny less than what we're worth?

It's painful and slow but more and more people are learning to live without working. Not an easy life but it's probably going to be necessary at some point if this system is ever going to change.
