If only there was a solution.

Yes, but, see, I've heard managers at businesses that pay minimum wage that it's "crazy" that they should pay more today for labour than they did in the past, because the labour is still the same.

They didn't seem to have this feeling about food, or gasoline, or other market commodities, but they really, really hate paying workers market rates, even though it was them that commodified labour in the first place.

Turns out, they like to live by the sword, but not die by the sword. That's for the rest of us.
