B)              But I would be the great enemy of most 'modern' thinkers because       I also think everyone should be paid what they are worth whereas       many these days think everyone should be paid the same because       it's not their fault that they are lazy, dumb or slow...       (To be crude about it.)              These are the same 'thinkers' that don't think anyone should ever       fail a grade in school because, again, it's not fair to penalize       them for not being as smart as others, ignoring the possibility       that they are just lazy.. B)              I guess I got that attitude because almost every job I ever had,       even in Union places, I was often paid more than others around       me who had worked there longer because I could do / produce more       in the same working hours..              At least in cases like that you know you're doing well since       they are willing to go against the Union to pay you extra..       It's not all in your head..
