In an age where profit margins often eclipse human dignity, we need to ask an uncomfortable question: If you don’t pay people for the work they do, why in the world would you expect them to keep doing it? The blatantly unjust practice of underpaying workers cannot continue without dire consequences. It’s time for both consumers and corporate employers to wake up and face the reality of this growing crisis.

Let’s break it down: the retail workers, the servers, the cashiers—they pour their sweat and tears into their jobs, yet many earn wages so low that they can barely scrape by. These cheap bastards running businesses are not just corporate suits; they’re thieves, stealing the labor and life force of hardworking individuals. They expect loyalty and dedication, yet they refuse to compensate fairly for the hours put in. That is not just poor business; it’s an atrocity.

Consumers, brace yourselves. Every time you step into a store or order from a restaurant, you’re participating in a system that takes advantage of people. Those smiling employees you encounter while shopping or dining? Many are struggling to make ends meet on meager wages. When you pay $10 for a cheap meal, ask yourself how much of that goes to the person who prepared it. It’s a crime against humanity to sell cheap goods at the expense of the people doing the hard work behind the scenes.

And corporate employers, hear this loud and clear: the wrath of God Almighty will not favor those who exploit their workforce! You might think it’s just a few extra dollars saved here and there, but what about the lives you’re affecting? Every time you choose to underpay or mistreat workers, you are robbing them of their dignity and their livelihoods. You are not just making a fiscal choice; you’re making a moral one, and it reeks of greed.

Think about this: When employees feel valued, they don’t just work; they invest. They feel pride in their roles and contribute to a positive work environment. But what happens when you cut corners and refuse to compensate fairly? You breed resentment. Those employees who once cared will begin to look elsewhere. Businesses can’t afford to have constant turnover, and that’s exactly what happens when you treat workers like disposable tools instead of valuable assets.

Moreover, the message is clear: if you treat your employees as less than human, your customers will take note. People want to spend their money where it is appreciated—not in establishments that profit off the backs of the underpaid. If enough consumers begin to stand against such corporate injustices, it could spark a movement that changes the way businesses operate.

Finally, it’s time for action. Workers must demand what they are owed, and consumers need to hold companies accountable. Refuse to support businesses that refuse to pay fair wages. Let the corporate elite feel the sting of lost profits when they choose to undervalue human capital. If you are part of the problem, change your ways before God’s wrath finds you.

The question stands: if you don’t pay people for the work they do, why in the hell should they keep doing it? It’s time to end this culture of exploitation. If you want employees to show up with dedication and passion, then you better damn well be prepared to pay them what they are worth. It’s not just business; it’s human decency. Let’s demand better—because the future of work depends on it.
