JP Morgan admits big corporate profits come from screwing workers

Politics USA - A recent JP Morgan memo to their investors from Michael Cembalest, the chief investment officer says, “US labor compensation is now at a 50-year low relative to both company sales and US GDP.” Cembalest continues to explain why corporate profits are so strong while the rest of the working class are feeling the pinch, “reductions in wages and benefits explain the majority of the net improvement in margins.” 75% of the increase in profit margins directly correlate with the reduction in workers’ wages.
