I know these discussions always end up in worker vs owner debates, but what I'm talking here is about the nation.

Factories will need to adjust their prices, now you take that as you will, and if one is naive one can think it means executives will take a pay cut while workers do not, but in the end it mean less wealth for everyone, less money for taxes, less money for shareholders, less money for executives, and of course less money for workers. That is less wealth for the nation.

So yes, owners will take smaller profits, along with everyone else.
