Luckily there are business magnates on both sides of the Atlantic who seem to realise that wealth has nothing to do with how much they have but is dependent on how much people are payed, taxed and spend. I am heartened to see the likes of Robert Reich urgung other business leaders to ensure a healthy economy by paying workers more.

OK, they may be in the minority at present but we can but hope others will realise the truth of true prosperiety before long.
