I’d say high rise iron workers seem the coolest. Think back to that black and white picture everyone has seen of the two guys sitting on a beam hundreds of feet up eating lunch.

Do you believe every job, period, is of equal importance and should be compensated equally? I’m positive both a stripper and a bar tender make considerably more money than a laborer (even in the laborors union) on a construction site. About 20-23 dollars an hour. Non union would typically be just above minimum wage. Are you saying the laborer should be making the 45-55 the master plumber installing the gas lines on that same site makes? Is it the esoteric “they” or is it common sense to compensate different levels/types of work differently.
I think they did their jobs well because you’re worried about keeping fellow wage earners down as opposed to lifting them up.
At no point did I say or imply all wages should be equal. But what I did say is those divisions in the laboring class you are so worried about are designed to divide and minimize working class people so that the ownership class can exploit them. And you seem to be playing your part quite nicely.
So what would justify a difference in wage between two individuals? In your opinion.
You’re not getting the point.
Do your views allow you to answer my question? Or would your answer show that your stance is illogical and hypocritical? If everyone shouldn’t be paid the same, what factors justify a difference in wage among profession?
