Or… Here’s a thought. Kids DO want to work, they just want their time valued; to be respected and have a liveable wage.

    Your comment look just fine for me, in the right place.

    As for your point, I guess people prefer to get cash and spend it themselves, rather than to trust companies to invest and spend it in their name. If people were to prefer smaller salaries but larger benefits, then situation would be different. One thing is still important though - medical insurance. Getting insurance yourself, especially before Obamacare was much more expensive than for business to buy it for you.

      They used to get cash and a pension. It wasn’t an either-or thing.
