>> Or it could turn out Wal-Mart employees actually do produce $10/hour of value, and the company was just being exploitative all along... Your assumption is that it's immoral for an employer to make a high margin on labor. My assumption is that it's foolish for an employer not to make a high margin. My employer had better be getting tens of thousands more out of my efforts than what they pay me, or they shouldn't have hired me. That margin will be in flux month to month while my salary is constant, so there had better be some wiggle room or I'll be fired. It's not immoral to sell a Star Wars action figure for 10x what you bought it for, is it? Why is labor different?
