Re: Name your wage

Picking fruit all day is hard work.
No way I'd work that hard unless I had to, or unless it far surpassed by current earnings, and had longevity/future earnings potential, etc.

I thought people got educated and worked hard at hard jobs, in an effort to compete with others to get the more cushy jobs. Some people have less opportunity due to language, nationality, parents (friends/teachers/mentors, etc.). They get the shaft of course, but other systems don't appear to have a more efficient solution.
