What has changed between the mills and child labour of the early industrial revolution and now? Have things changed in kind, fundamentally, or have they changed in degree? I think it is the latter. It seems to me that if one is prepared to extol the status quo on e has to show that we have moved on from early capitalism in some profound way, otherwise you end up arguing that all that death and misery to fuel the lives of the idle rich is and was acceptable.
The piece about a firm giving large bonuses is the exception, rather than the rule, so merely highlights the routine..nada.
Have a nice christmas!
