Because the ruling class destroyed working class solidarity and gave everyone anxiety disorders so no one has the chutzpah to go to their boss and negotiate higher pay. Your boss can negotiate prices with suppliers because that's the established culture. Everything, and i mean everything, in this world is negotiable if you understand what leverage each party possesses.
