    If companies at all levels pay their employees properly they will receive better output. It’s a win win situation. You get what you pay for.

      If companies paid their employees properly there would be no profits because all profits are stolen wages.

    What is the first thing kids in the US do at school? Say the pledge of allegiance. Then they sit in assigned seats. Walk in orderly single file lines to resource classes. They do what they are told all day or get punished. In later years, the single file lines go away, but it is still very much do what you are told. Then they may go to higher education and have even more freedom to participate in the textbook racket and buy books and do the work you are told to do or else you fail out. Then you go to work and do what your boss tells you to do.

    No wonder this freedom loving country puts up with so much shit. We spend our formative years being bossed around in highly structured environments. At no point did I ever have a class on work management. This would include things like FMLA, what right to work means, unions, NDAs, arbitration clauses, non-competes, FLSA (applicable here), OSHA, intellectual property (how an employer might own your work), how to start a business, military options like branches, officer, warrant officer, and enlisted options, how to get a job, education/trade school and how different degrees/licenses/etc work, and most importantly, your options for when you are being ripped off, discriminated against, etc. This should be a requirement for graduating highschool. I do realize the irony here.

    When I get a job, if I find out that the manager is committing wage theft, I will deepfry their goldfish and blend it to the depths of hell and bury it in Antarctica, where it will eventually be revealed by confused scientists.
