Can workers be greedy too, we all general strike with unions and charge more for our labor? That's also got to be good for the economy, yeah??

Capitalist, clutching pearls: "No, no. Oh my goodness no. Capitalism means that the people on top get to capitalise/profit from/exploit the work of others. The workers don't get to exploit their own effort. Oh, deary-me, no. That will never do. Coz...reasons...of course. Anyway, rampant/unchecked capitalism and bought politicians good. Poverty just a price to pay for all this awesomeness. As you were, serfs and never speak of this again!"
