Moskovitz: Tech Industry 'destroying personal lives' and Jan Mickelson: Enslave Undocumented statements have a lot in common, "Let them Eat Cake"

AfocatioN's perspective is that the major driver of the cutthroat work culture is clearly illustrated in the Do More With Less, Free Labor Mentality. With the vast majority of corporate profits going to shareholders, the peasants are forced to fight for the crumbs. It stands to conclude the elites "Let them Eat Cake" mentality illustrate the obliviousness and selfishness of the  the current American Upper class and white Privileged.
"After 1973, productivity grew strongly, especially after 1995, while the typical worker’s compensation was relatively stagnant. This divergence of pay and productivity has meant that many workers were not benefiting from productivity growth—the economy could afford higher pay but it was not providing it." | Economic Policy Institute
The nations racist practices towards integration of non-whites into the workforce is a key factor missing from the various studies. The enactment of laws providing people of color rights as citizens was a major catalyst for this divergence. With people of color afforded greater rights the nation thirst for free and cheap labor is manifested in demands for longer work hours and a reduction in compensation. Typically the privileged class perpetuate this by blaming Affirmative Action and similar laws that ensure citizens are afforded opportunity based on their ability. Let this be clear, Color as a Stigma is a business model systematically instituted by the state, instilled into privileged and manifested in the form of hate .

Lincoln expressed the following in his private papers:
 “If A can prove… that he may, of right, enslave B.—why may not B snatch the same argument, and prove equally, that he may enslave A? –You say A. is white, and B. is black. It is color, then; the lighter having the right to enslave the darker? Take care. By this rule, you are to be slave to the first man you meet, with a fairer skin than your own. You do not mean color exactly? –You mean the whites are intellectually the superiors of the blacks, and therefore have the right to enslave them? Take care again. By this rule, you are to be slave to the first man you meet, with an intellect superior to your own. But, say you, it is a question of interest; and if you can make it your interest, you have the right to enslave another. Very  well. And if he can make it his interest, he has the right to enslave you.”
Bush like host of current slate of Nero-Republican Presidential candidates see themselves as superior with a perceived mandate to take back the country aka enslave others. Trump's dictatorial rise as a viable candidate based his perceived wealth and expressions of hate is supported by Jan Mickelson statement to enslave people if they don't leave the country.
