Through the periods of high and egalitarian growth in the '50s and '60s, the minimum wage-which sets a floor for other wages-tracked productivity. That ended with the onset of neoliberal doctrine.

Whether it's a military society, a partially free society, or what we - not he - would call a totalitarian state, it's the governed who have the power.

If they aren't able to do that, the whole thing is going to collapse."
