While dunking is more fun, responses like this are evidence that the contradictions of Capitalism are beginning to even adversely affect the Petite and National Bourgeoisie in America.

I would try something like, "Don't you wish that profit margins weren't so tight these days that you had to go years without a paycheck and into hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt just to take care of and provide for your employees?"

They'll respond that the only reason their profits aren't soaring is because the government is ruining the economy with immigrants and regulations and taxes and sending all their jobs to China.
