I wish I was talented enough to write novels. I would love to use that as the book title (I'd credit you with the title idea of course).
Yea, maybe we should all just submit ourselves to the altar of capitalism. Get it done with.
That's not exactly what I meant by inefficiency. I mean things like giving more benefits to workers at the expense of the bottom line. The ultimate measure of efficiency in a business is revenue/cost, and giving benefits makes the cost higher (reduces efficiency).
A classic tactic of the capitalist is to pit workers against each other, so that they don't unite against them. Hence why you brought up the point that I should be unhappy with inferior workers (i.e. shift my focus to my fellow workers)... well, sure I would not be happy, but that fact doesn't absolve the capitalist either.
Why do I sound like dirty marxist?

How would you feel if a inferior worker got the same compensation? If a person feels under appreciated, then they aren't being taken care of, now are they.
I know a pat on the back can work, and other ways of appreciating people. But nothing in the world signifies it like partaking in the success you help produce.
Not taking care of your workers, is the same as not taking care of your equipment or your bank account. The workers are part of your success, and should be treated that way Union or no Union. Those companies and leaders who understand this concept succeed, and even though there are many that do not value their workers and still do well... The market will make them pay eventually, and the best practices will always bubble to the top.

I can think of 11780 reasons Trump shouldn't be president ever again.
