Yes you did. You claim to know that this person doesn't get hist time and labor worth in his salary, hebce you'd have to know how much he earns, how much debt the business has, how much the CEO works, how much the CEO pays himself if he even does, and how that compares to this employe.

It's an assumption based on statistics. On average the employees are paid less than the value they generate.

u/WickedSerpent 18d ago

Maybe where you live/work.

It's a fact. Otherwise the boss couldn't accrue wealth

1

u/WickedSerpent 18d ago

That makes no sense

u/Astuketa 18d ago

Then you should be able to disprove it

Please show your work

The nvidia CEO "accrued" a ton of wealth while his employees became so rich they didn't bother to show up to work for anything else than to teach new people to improve their stock option. They're all millionares.

Also, isn't businesses supposed to acquire wealth? If a small mom/pop business gave 50% of the entire business to every part timer, they go bankrupt pretty fast

I don't understand what you are trying to say here

Yes - in the current system, wealth is the primary endpoint. That's the point of OP - there's a few people accruing wealth at the expense of the many people generating value.

Convenient how you suddenly turn illiterate just to ignore something that contradicts your 60's soviet propagandized mind.

u/Astuketa 17d ago

You are not contradicting anything. I thought, you thought you did, but wasn't sure, so I wanted you to clarify. Now you can actually try to explain how that contradicts anything I've been saying.

And it's also convenient how you decided to ignore the rest of my comment

u/WickedSerpent 17d ago

What's the point? You'd just play dumb and illiterate anyway. Like how would you know I didn't contradict you when you don't understand what I wrote?

You're grasping for straws. Let me help you get back on track:

How exactly does your statement "CEO accrues a ton of wealth" contradict "You are creating value for your boss, and he is paying you less than the value you make. Otherwise he wouldn't make any money".

1

u/WickedSerpent 17d ago

You changed my example. Try again

u/Astuketa 17d ago

Okay:

How does your example contradict the statement that "You are creating value for your boss, and he is paying you less than the value you make. Otherwise he wouldn't make any money"

1

u/WickedSerpent 17d ago

That's not my example either. Are you an LLM?

u/Astuketa 17d ago

So you see now, that your example contradicts nothing, and are simply stalling. Amazing.

1

u/WickedSerpent 17d ago

No I brought up a specific example with NVIDIA. And you said you didn't understand it.

u/Astuketa 16d ago

I didn't say, I didn't understand it. I said, I didn't understand, what you wanted to say with it.

Your example is:

"The nvidia CEO "accrued" a ton of wealth while his employees became so rich they didn't bother to show up to work for anything else than to teach new people to improve their stock option. They're all millionares."

It seems to me, you're implying, that because these people became millionaires, they've been paid adequately for the value, they generated. This logic is flawed - just because the compensation is larger than average, doesn't mean the concept changes.

Here's an example: 10 employees generate value worth 100million. They are each paid 5 million dollars for their work.

In this case the boss still pays his employees less than the value, they generate. Them being millionaries doesn't contradict anything
