The hight of the wage and the value to society are inversely proportional, with a few exceptions. Working for the greater good is seen as its own reward.

Meanwhile, Teachers have been paying for students school supplies out of pocket for like 20 years because of lack of funding…
Not to say that this isn’t fucked up and stupid, it is. However, I kind of don’t feel that bad for knowledge workers who are getting paid enough to invest that kind of money in their personal setups to begin with. No offense, but they took that kind of job because of the kind of pay, and if they’re happy to be a capitalist pay pig and be exploited that’s their bag.
I feel bad for teachers because they actually provide value to society.
No offense but most of these Fortune 500 companies do more leeching on society than providing value to it.

Funny how that own reward doesn’t pay the bills. I wonder why our education system is falling apart…
