Really?? Bette Midler diagnoses root cause of Black Friday fighting among bargain-seekers

Another Black Friday has passed, and with it came some more extreme aggressiveness from bargain-seekers.

According to Bette Midler, there’s a way to stop the insanity:

And how was YOUR Black Friday? No injuries, I hope! It's incredible that we have to fight over STUFF. If there were a DECENT minimum wage, or if workers were treated fairly, and got a tiny portion of the kinds of salaries and bonuses CEOS pay themselves, we wouldn't.

That kind of thing wouldn’t happen in the minimum wage was increased? We’re guessing some people involved in Black Friday scuffles aren’t necessarily squeaking by on minimum wage. And speaking of stuff:

They sure seem to love their “stuff” too.

You live in W.C. Fields' old mansion, Bette. If you don't love "stuff," then move to a smaller and less opulent place. Most of the people shopping on Black Friday can't afford any of the thing you take for granted. https://t.co/hraOsTxrT3
