> A percentage of phone sales always goes to factory workers in the form of wages...

Preposterous, factory workers are usually paid the same wage whether their production sells 1000 units or 1 million units. Their wage isn't based on how many phones are sold or even if phones are sold since the factory is usually paid upfront in production, not when the phones are actually sold.

Phone factory worker wages are completely unrelated to phone sales.

You comment illustrates a complete misunderstanding of the supply chain business.
