> Worth and value are inherently subjective If they are inherently subjective, why are you claiming we're not paid what we're worth? This statement is meaningless, isn't it? > It kinda/sorta works, but it also kinda doesn't In what way it doesn't work? Clearly it has more utility than other attempts at measuring value. I can agree it's not perfect (nothing is), but that's very different from not working. > let's say that workers in America demand $10/hour and African workers ask for $2/hour for the exact same job. What's the correct value for that labor? The correct value is whatever someone is paying for that labor on a free market. > You could say it's the minimum value at $2. But then some other worker asks for $1. Did you make a mistake? The only mistake is treating value as inherent and static. |
