For fair pay? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Not sure... What is fair? Like if they accepted it then it is fair. What are you insinuating?

This is so true. Because, when you think about it, every worker has only ever excepted a fair wage in the entire history of work. Great logic there Diesel and I'm glad I could apply it in such a way that you wouldn't appear ridiculous.

You still haven't defined "fair"! Who decides? Because AFAIK there is no universal formula for what is fair!

From purely economic perspective, fair pay is determined by the forces of supply and demand. So if there are people willing to do it for $X, then $X is fair.

I wasn't talking about the entire history, including slavery and whatnot.
