Stock Markets getting those record highs tho. If only people could get paid in shares of the companies that own their labor, but if that happened they'd actually have to answer to the workers and we simply can't have that in muh free markets
Honestly, i don't want to get paid in share of the company, i'd prefer cash directly bank into my account so it's available immediately for me to use on the needs and wants. With share, i need to liquidate it, that took time in negotiation. And if no one want to buy it in a bad year, i'm stuck with shrinking money that i can't use.
Different story if you work in those big tech of course.

Right because if that happened investors would dump their shares and invest in companies that use slave labor.
