Why doesn’t the Government regulate employee wages/raises?

It's obviously apparent that companies are seeing record profit margins despite inflation. So corporations are making more money than ever while employees has not seen any raises/wage adjustments with decreased buying power on top of that. It seems it would make sense for a law to be passed that yearly raises must be exactly the same (at minimum) as the yearly inflation rate. Going further, if you want people to respect capitalism at all, we must enact laws that share profits with employees and I'm not talking about stock equity. If a companies profit margins sharply increase over their 5 year average, it should be required for companies to set aside 25% of those extra profits and distribute to yearly bonuses or raises. These are simple laws that are now required in a world of never-ending corporate greed and employee abuse.
