The post I replied to clearly equals value with money.

It connects them, it doesn't say they're the same.

Money is an important type of value, especially the context of labor.

And, let me phrase this very precisely: there isn't an obvious non-monetary value they're getting back that comes close to the effort they put in.

You mentioned joy and gratitude but again I'm not sure how much of that they get back in this situation, plus there is the flip side of lots of complaints.
