The logic is a mess here.

A) Nobody is mad that a mail boy makes $75k. They are mad that they carry more of a workload than a mail boy but are rewarded with identical compensation.

B) It bolsters stagnation. $75k is great pay for mail room work. I should buy a bigger house, more TV's, enjoy this life. Never shall I be bothered with professional growth again!

C) Mail room workers don't generate or assist in $75k of revenue for the company, they generate or mitigate costs of drastically less. Therefore we are now working for a company that is forced to needlessly pass the costs on to our customers.

All this crazy pay is fun if you are in a tech bubble or in a single city in California where everyone can be this 'innovative' but the fact is, most people aren't able to contribute to a cause to the tune of $75k/yr.

Your logic right also be a tad messy. A company like that probably doesn't have a "mail boy" or anything very similar. The lowest paying jobs are probably customer support and office manager which are always inexplicably low-paying jobs.
