The company is probably going to charge their customers even more for the work you do in your working time.
Someone already pays that money. The workers just don’t receive it.
If everybody was self-employed, those are the prices that would be paid.
Comment on The time and expense of commuting is theft, if that job can be done from home.

I agree up to the extent of the numbers. I think $50/hr is feasible if we make drastic changes to our economy. $150/hr simply cannot work with the country’s current number of workers and overall productivity.

We have people starving and then we have people traveling to the other side of the planet to throw a wedding that could feed millions of people.
Fuck a number, fuck money, eat the rich then we can all eat and live wherever we want.
