As we celebrate Labor Day, Roger Smith, CEO of American Income Life and National Income Life Insurance Co., reminds us that for America’s economy to grow and flourish, workers must be paid a fair wage and allowed to freely join unions. Smith also serves on the board of the Alliance for Retired Americans and is a consultant to the Labor Council for Latin American Advancement.
Labor Day 2009 is a good time to reflect on the state of America’s workers. For the millions of workers who are unemployed, underemployed or underpaid, their plight is one of empty pockets.
Nothing instills hope and optimism like the sound of change in your pocket. Nothing is more terrifying and bleak than an empty pocket and no prospect to fill it.
