The article does a poor job quantifying "ability."
> Most low-wage workers are underpaid relative to their measured intelligence and personality traits, and many of the highest-paid professionals — including doctors, lawyers and financial managers — are overpaid according to the same metrics.
This is a ridiculous comparison because low wage workers are not being paid for their intelligence. Why would anybody ever think that skill at 2 different jobs should be measured by the same criteria?
- natecavanaugh 7y agoYeah, this article is pretty representative of a general trend to say alot without actually saying anything intelligible. Should Michael Jordan have been paid equally as high as a baseball player as he was when he was on the Bulls? Same person, same intelligence, same measurable traits.
