Welcome to Patriots for Progress. Round these parts, we roleplay as American conservatives and use all the reactionary buzzwords while continuing to produce leftist and communist propaganda.

Rule 1: No special snowflake white supremacist nonsense, or any other kind of bigotry

Rule 2: No big city econ major capitalism talk. And no centrism either, the LORD gave us the second amendment for a reason

Rule 3: AMERICAN PATRIOTS ONLY πŸ¦…πŸ¦…πŸ¦…!!! This is America, so you'd best speak English, Navajo, Cherokee, or some other American language!

No, not what they want. What they have to, wich mostly depends on degree of organization in the workforce and instutionalized results of past organization.

Besides that wages oscillate around the worth it takes to reproduce the capacity to work.

If they'd pay what they want (always less) market economies could not persist, since they would destroy their workforce right away

It's just important to think systemically on both sides, labour and capital. Otherwise you end up with confusing essentialism and some kind of concept of "evil"
