Yes. If I think you're worth more I pay you more. Josh Allen makes more money than Sam Darnold. Seems pretty fair.

Here is Ms. Taylor's Twitter. You will notice that on the page it says Actor, Director, Writer, Filmmaker & Barge Owner. Trained at LAMDA, Equity, SAG/AFTRA, US work visa & EU.papers

So yes, really stupid of you to suggest that I'm ok with them offering a non-union actor a lower rate to avoid paying the union minimum when they are in fact both in the union. 

Either way, I'm not going to waste any more time arguing about positions I don't actually hold.

So your original response to my reply was that I had misrepresented you by taking your position to be that you absolutely think the employer is the sole determiner of fair employee value/wages and then you respond here with "If I think you're worth more I pay you more."

Are there instances where employers think somebody is worth more than another employee, they aren't, and shouldn't be paid more? In those cases does "If I think you're worth more I pay you more" apply as fair? Is it ethical to provide a low-ball offer (which you yourself admitted seemingly happened) to somebody because you'd rather have somebody else, but you want to see if they'll take the low wage, which I'd assume you agree is very different from merely paying more for somebody you value more?

And I don't see how her being part of SAGAFTRA makes it better and not worse. The union rates were posted earlier in this thread.

Given the time she spent in the prior games, unless something is drastically different in Bayonetta 3 in terms of time-commitment they initially tried to not pay her union rates? 

Edit: Just read your edit. Wow...
