What you're saying really boils down to whether or not you think capitalism makes sense, which is a much bigger argument, but ignoring that --
Who defines "should be earning"? You?
Currently, we let the market determine it. It's fine to say you don't like that system, but that's the argument you should make, not "Big game companies are unfair". They're just playing the game the way we set it up.
Alternatively, you could maybe argue "I believe it is possible to make AAA games, pay high salaries, and actually make profits all at the same time", which would be an interesting take, and you could maybe explain how.
But saying "this is worker exploitation" is an uninspired, unproductive argument, IMO.
- pjanoman 5y agoI'd argue that hiding behind "we let the market determine it" is much more uninspired and unproductive. Economic research now a days is constantly showing that markets are extremely flawed. One example of that is society pressuring employees to not share their wages, which is exactly what this whole article is about.
