Well said. Such huge culture shifts are hard because of the pain involved in the transition. On the Other side we have employees being paid fairly and predictably and customers not being punished for their generosity.

It’s the excessive individualism that marks our (i.e. USA) culture. This problem is getting worse over time because every single party involved sees it as someone else’s problem, and is just optimizing for their own interests only.
