| JWeinCom said: Fair is relative to how much value they think she adds. For whatever reason, they didn't seem to think it was worth that much. It isn't like they just didn't want to shell out the money, because they picked a pretty expensive replacement. They were willing to compensate someone well for the role, just didn't think she was worth it. |
Fair wage = what the owner/manager of capital determines one's value to be?
Interesting argument which history has shown leads to the mass of people destitute and starving while the minority live in opulence.
Personally I don't think those with capital or who manage capital should have a unilateral say over what is "fair" when it comes to remuneration. If they had their way we'd all be living on subsistence wages until our bodies or minds deteriorate, then we can just die.
SCABs typically made/make more than the workers they replaced on strike, just to add context.
