high profits, big cuts

Mr. Coyne warns us that the baby boomers can expect cuts in their old age pensions. Workers at a factory are locked out even as the factory reports record profits. The child povery rate is rising. working and middle class wages struggle while  the incomes of the wealthiest in the western world rise to the highest levels in recorded history.

We have an economic system based on greed, self-interest, and abuse - not to mention war, torture, and assassination.

Gee. I dunno. It seems to me there are moral questions here.
