I should have been more clear on what I mean: I am well aware that the job market is not optimizing for fairness but that is what people often judge situations on. I do understand how it came to all of this and how the situation is justified but just posed that if we turned our back to completely free markets and imagined a structure based on "fairness" then things should probably be different. Furthermore I disagree with the argument that nobody would want to work an intense job while being "underpaid". Plenty of labor is really intense and pays minimum wage or barely over.
