did he judge his selfinterest correctly? [range of hrly pay made the monsters]?

Question

common thinking argues: i do brainwork, so im superior - where is the competition, the drive to excel? - cant get demotion for poor performance - why i prefer democracy

the slacker gets fired - there is no protectn for slacking in eql/hr pay

fairpay=equal motivatn

the big downside his tunnelvision was blind to, is that, opening up to unlimited range of hrly pay means inequality of hrly pay grows endlessly, giving birth to antidemocratic range of political power, ie, tyranny, corruption, greed [lust for overpay, ie, pay for work + pay for no work], giving birth to endless stretching of wealth/poverty, tyranny/slavery, erosion of human rights, increase of sadism brutality, giving birth to endless increase of violence [war & crime], growing to power to kill all planet life [which we hav now] -

predator tunnelvision has blinded us to the giant predator on us which our unlimited pay has created [oilman tyranny, killg mllns, oppressg bllns, stealg trllns]

Answer 1

I can only speak for myself and I have laboured hard throughout my life and it has paid off! It's called capitalism and in my opinion it works! If ppl would just put more of their energy into hard work and less into crying, they too may experience it.

Answer 2

Not really. Anti-democratic power, tyranny, etc has been around a lot longer than capitalism.

On the contrary, democracy has only become normal since and because of the rise of the modern economy with economic growth, globalisation and also all the problems of pollution, congestion, etc.
