I'm just going to try to parse what you're saying here to make sure I understand your perspective.

Are you suggesting that remuneration should be based on the effort involved in doing the work (or as you say the amount of time put in)? If so, do you mean physical effort, or what? This seems like a pretty big claim so I'd like to understand what you mean.

And the point is that people that are doing those jobs, working full-time, trying to support families and what not (just like the rest of us), should be able to provide the same necessities (school, recreation, possibly special needs support, etc..) for their kids as anyone else.

So should peoples' remuneration for the same work vary based on whether or not they have a family or have for example decided to remain a bachelor for their whole life? Should it scale based on the number of kids the employee has?

For your second paragraph, I don't necessarily disagree. A lot of my value put on work is the time spent doing it.

Okay. Well let's say I work twelve hours today and so does the guy at the Macs across town. I'm assuming you think one of us should be paid more than the other, and I'm wondering what criteria you would suggest for deciding how much more?

But you will never be able to convince me that anyone earns (as in works hard enough on a day to day basis to justify that difference) 1000s of times more than anyone else. Nobody has that type of positive impact to our system.

This seems to be a different claim, that remuneration should be in some way based on the "positive impact to our system" that the work performed provides. Can you explain what you mean by that phrase?
