If market theory of value is true, then nobody ever got a good deal and nobody ever got ripped off. Nobody has ever been under or over paid.
Refunds should be illegal because the perfect price was agreed to and questioning that after the fact is communism.

- My skills: swindling idiots
- My job description: CEO of a huge company
- My actual job: take decisions based on “research”
- My pay: pornographically high

- Your skills: medicine, caretaking, team management
- Your job description: nurse
- Your actual job: all the medical work that medics feel is “below” them
- Your pay: hahahahahaha
Clearly working as intended.
Well, you have lots of nurses with lots of work to do. Paying them all pornographic sums would be very expensive. But you only have one nephew that you need to marry off to a Senator’s kid.

It’s worth what anyone other than you will value it at.
This is true in any economic or political system. It’s just that some preconfigure your returns on your labor ahead of time, and make it more in line with everyone else

The value is what the rich elite is able to gain from one’s skills and time. Pay is somewhere below that, artificially lowered by the rich elite increasing the desperation of all workers.

No, not what they want. What they have to, wich mostly depends on degree of organization in the workforce and instutionalized results of past organization.
Besides that wages oscillate around the worth it takes to reproduce the capacity to work.
If they’d pay what they want (always less) market economies could not persist, since they would destroy their workforce right away
It’s just important to think systemically on both sides, labour and capital. Otherwise you end up with confusing essentialism and some kind of concept of “evil”
Mods removed comment that says of course this is true with +20 agree.
Hey Mods, FUCK your censorship. Get an ML instance. Your little shit hole is worse for you modding it. Ban me and make a really nice echo chamber to give each other handjobs in.
What are you, some pussy ass conservatives around here that can’t have honest discussion?
This comment don’t actually break the rules, so I’mma leave it up, but you could stand to be a little more patriotic. This is AMERICA!

Better get a Lemmy where you can delete every mean comment, Elon. Fuck you
Elon Musk is the most unpatriotic, un-american lazy immigrant I ever did meet. He even wants to force his own daughter to be a man. That awful big city rich elite don’t know shit about family, and I guarantee you he ain’t worked an honest day in his life.
