Today’s “Word of the Day” is spoils and it is a noun meaning “benefits, advantages, perks; treasures, windfalls, takings; booty, loot, plunder, prize”.
Example Sentence: Employees are forced to take what the market pays. Such an imbalance won’t benefit the wider economy in the long run. Workers and bosses have a shared interest. Productivity incentives from greater employee power can boost profits as well. Without ministers stepping in on the side of workers to mediate class conflict and ensure the spoils – or the pain – of economic activity is evenly shared, Britain risks remaining trapped in a low-wage, low-growth spiral.
