> but if their employees can't keep up with the cost of living that's a problem, right?

The sad truth is that employees that can’t afford the cost of living have little leverage and might be replaceable by employees that will work for even less (because they have to, not because they want to).




Well, if you're either a victim or you own the company and make more victims I still think there's a problem.


You're not a victim though. That's just nature.


I'm using the words of the person I was originally responding to: "Or maybe just be a victim forever".
