Unfortunately, that man (Dan Price) ended up being charged with assault later down the road, which I've seen used as an "argument" against the pay cut as just "well he's a bad person, so obviously that's a bad idea too."

I recall it being brought up on an old Fox News clip from an interview they'd done with someone a few years back, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Could also just be my memory being a bit hazy though.

Regardless, who could have guessed that paying your workers a fair cut of their labor's value would make them capable of supporting themselves in a capitalist society? /s
