Offer more incentives to those who meet American values

Here's an idea.  If we want to encourage businesses to offer livable wages and benefits and be willing to cut mega profiteering at the expense of jobs and quality products, why not just offer incentives to those companies who show a significant percentage increase in wages and benefits to employees?

The first thing that could be utilized is business tax cuts.  These then are earned for businesses who offer more to workers.  Companies don't have to do it though.  If they prefer to get by with fewer workers to gain maximum profits because they live for the almighty dollar, let them.  They just won't qualify for the incentives.

It still offers those businesses a choice to run their businesses as they choose to.  But puts into place societal ideals that as a country we want to promote.

It can be done, no good reason it shouldn't be done.  Democrats and republicans won't do it though because they would have to give up their polarizing finger pointing power game and and they could never do that.
