Your pay is driven by your political status. It has nothing to do with value generated or with needs.

If an employer is defining it according to your needs, that's a sign you have relatively low status. It's not a sign that the employer is correct.

This is partly why remote has huge potential benefits for employers. Committed remote means huge savings on office space. But it also lowers the chances of collective political activity, including unionisation.
