So executive bonuses and salaries can keep skyrocketing with no consequence, but workers getting what they need is what you complain about?

No. I'm complaining that what they are getting is just a bandaid to the problem. These workers getting paid more won't stop executive bonuses and salaries from skyrocketing and the money to fund those bonuses will just be pulled from our pockets. Until some regulation is in place to fix the underlying issue, employers and employees will just keep trading blows and running up the cost. Everyone is acting like these car companies are suddenly going to stop doing what they've been doing for decades.
