You can't reduce this issue to a value of an individual's labor when there are hard costs on goods people can't afford to exceed. There's not some independent labor value chart where people are fairly slotted based on their actual labor contribution. Hell, if that were the case how could you or I make money and ramble inanely in these threads for a solid portion of our day?

There is no point in arguing with someone who has reduced people solely to their value of economic output especially without even addressing the context of a person’s upbringing and inherent economic advantages/disadvantages. BoLevi reminds me of the undergrads who read atlas shrugged and thought they had the world figured out.
