So news organizations should follow the primary sources, not me.&lt;p&gt;Yes and no.  I appreciate where he&amp;#x27;s coming from, but &amp;quot;mega-corporation exploits and mistreats blue-collar workers&amp;quot; isn&amp;#x27;t new.  That happens every day, and has since corporations have existed.&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;White-collar worker quits over own company&amp;#x27;s treatment of blue-collar workers&amp;quot; &lt;i&gt;is&lt;/i&gt; news.  It points to a shift: even the people profiting off this are starting to think it&amp;#x27;s getting ridiculous.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m having trouble thinking of any other cases where this has occurred.  The only thing that comes to mind is Gates and Buffet saying they should pay higher taxes, but that has much less personal impact on them.</text></comment>
