    I wouldn’t say he under paid

    You already did say that he did not pay a lot.

    He could have paid the minimum wage but he didn’t

    And I could have been assaulting random people, but I don’t do that. Heap laurels upon me now.

    The one job I had 15 years later in the same town paid me 3$/hr to be a server and busboy

    Going to note that you being paid so little is a consequence of extremely rich people like your friend existing as a class in your economy.

        This is rather silly.

        Capitalists push to have your wages be lower and lower, and you keep trying to defend them.
        Meanwhile, we already know that their abolition produces massive improvements in the standards of living.

          Bud I got an education that made my value as employee explode. My last job paid over $65/hr because of my worth. Sadly the imperialists laid us off. But I will find work again. Last time it took me just 5 days. I already have 3 interviews set up. And have progressed through one of them currently.

            Kid, you were paid that not because of ‘your worth’, but because of your position. You can have any education and have any sort of skills and still be paid 3$ per hour.

            Also, again, you present individual anecdotes to claim that the system as a whole does not work as described. Your education is very clearly lacking.
