You know what helps the lower and middle-class? Unions.

Only when they, too, are kept under reasonable control. The biggest boost to the middle class in the past 50 years was during the Thatcher era, when the government firmly stamped on union abuses of power and gave power back to ordinary people.

Uncontrolled unions are just as bad as uncontrolled companies.
