After that if you do a fair days work you are entitled to fair compensation for that work, no matter how menial or trivial it may be. You are employed to do it, and if you do it you should be compensated for it.
If you can't answer the question, you are either admitting I am right, or that the question is above your ability to understand.
It's not a hard question:
Why would people work harder and spend more money on training themselves if they knew the reward for their efforts is the same as the guy who worked less and spent less??
It's not a hard question to understand, it just breaks the ridiculous world view that you have sold yourself, I guess to rationalize not doing the work those guys did and wanting more money for what you do.
To accept that others deserve more for their efforts because they have done more and invested more would be to admit you did not, and got exactly what you deserve.
Therein lies the difference in us: I can accept that others studied longer, learned more difficult work, invested more in the training and therefore deserve more pay. You think you should get the pay without the work and investment, you're a freeloader like Apoppin.
You're not even right about what businesses want.
One of my degrees is a BS-Business and they never once told us "Business exists to provide society with an equal standard of living". No, they told us "businesses exist to provide a profit or service to owners".
Do you HONESTLY think the guy that mops the floors at NVIDIA is as important to the company as the guy who designs the GPUs? That you could in any way sell that laughable insanity?
How about at a law firm? Have a bunch of lawyers that do the highly skilled work and make all the money for the company, and Louie, emptying the trash every night. Yeah, Louie is just as important as the lawyers.
