How about we go one step further and make all salaries public information?

I'm not sure why you'd want to do that. It seems unnecessary to achieve pricing transparency - anonymized salaries would be sufficient. It would require a dramatic cultural shift to be accepted. Discussing of one's salary is taboo (at least in the U.S.).

Because it's none of your business how much money I make.

What's that got to do with anything? It's none of their business what you look like, but you still go out in public, right?
