You make a claim that there's no way to pay them according to their value. But there's several ways I can say that this is not true. First, a waitress is often a little bit of a salesperson so yes, she can up her skills to be more valuable. Second, the food or the goods being transported can be more or less valuable. A trucker might haul packing peanuts vs. iPhones. Restaurants can be more expensive or have higher margins. Third, we know it's possible to pay people a living wage because almost every other developed countries does it.

This is true on an individual level, but I don't believe that there has been much efficiency increase here that has permeated through the industry. There has been no shovel to digger moment that has improved the ability for most waitresses to do their work much more efficiently. I think it's going to happen with self-checkout though (you will still need someone to staff self-checkout). >Third, we know it's possible to pay people a living wage because almost every other developed countries does it. But workers are better paid in the US than in almost any other country in the world: https://data.oecd.org/chart/6JwY https://data.oecd.org/chart/6JwY
- namelessoracle 4y agoSpain has an unemployment rate of 15 percent. Its safe to assume that actual rate is higher than official rate. So no, "almost every other developed countries does it" is not true. Also look up part timers in Japan, and the kind of capitalism there.
