Living wages in exchange for work.
But if labour can afford to live, how will we minimise their ability to focus what little energy we leave them with at the end of their shift on improving their situation?
Paying a living wage is a slippery slope that ends in things like healthcare, education and opportunities being available to all, and that'd make them more than just our bought and paid for production labour, that'd make them our rivals.
