You're forgetting that labor activists are also motivated by profit, which is not necessarily aligned with interests of labor themselves. As we've seen from the social and news media, it's relatively easy to a make people angry and jealous without improving their lives at all.

Labor activists = unions/people who run unions? Atleast in my country we pay % of our paycheck to unions, so when I get more, they get more. It really the opposite of my employer, when I get less, they get more.
