Right, but the central bank knows that IT is the one forcing the lower wages. They're not standing up there asking employees to shred part of their paycheck, because that is obviously dumb. The original person was talking about what workers should do "out of the goodness of their own heart." But no central bank is asking workers to take action, they are forcing workers' hands, explicitly. You may think that is better or worse, but it is not appealing directly to workers to throw away their pay check.
