Is Reich aware that employee productivity increases mostly as a result of capital investments made by employers in thing such as computers, networks, software programs, things that connect to the worldwide web and allow employees to reach more customers and process data substantially faster than they could in 1979 and that the return on these capital investments is just normal profit, not a nefarious scheme to rob workers of their checks notes "surplus labor value." Or does he actually think workers are 87% faster and more efficient than they were 46 years ago? And is he aware that without this profit companies wouldn't be able to replace technological investments that become obsolete very quickly?
he's a socialist; he works with feelings
At least he got the repeal tariffs part right.
