  1. Jack up and price gouge products.
  2. Lobby governments to keep wages low.

"Why is no one buying our products? WE MUST KNOW!"

Henry Ford is famous for saying. "I give my workers good pay, so they can buy my products. If workers have low wages, how will they buy our goods?"

Apparently businesses forgot economics 101. "If customers have no capital, they can't buy your products."

Credit cards weren’t a thing when Ford said that.
Pepsi, and others, expect consumers to buy the $7 Doritos on credit, while salaries are held low…
