Soon this small change by the Fed affects all aspects of business, from the price level to interest rates on credit card .....

.... businesses and corporations have eight-hour work days, with optional extra hours. This is not usually a topic in negotiations, but could be. Working conditions could be discussed. If workers in the factory have no heat, no lunch breaks or they are not allowed to speak, (which was the case in many sweatshops for immigrants and children in the 1920's through 1940's), then the labor unions will obviously want something done.

.... growers of table and wine grapes. In 1965, the UFW with the AFL-CIO led a five-year boycott of table grapes, urging shoppers throughout the country not to buy or eat grapes. In 1970, as a result of the boycott, many growers signed contracts with the UFW. However, vegetable growers signed contracts with the Teamsters in order to limit UFW power and, in 1973 when the grape contracts expired, grape growers also signed with the Teamsters.

It will be a challenge to manage the whole compensation process. The consensus of the group was that executive pay would have to move back to a more equitable distribution or the rank- and-file employees would be bitter and there could be a backlash. I disagree that this is .....

.... in the economy, which in turn will elevate economic growth and increase the number of jobs. In order to stimulate economic growth in the United States, taxes on capital gains should be eliminated. Members of Congress once considered a reduction in the capital gains tax rate from 28% to 19.8%. Combined with indexation, which is , reducing the capital gains tax by any amount would be a vital pro-growth step taken by Congress.
