> 1. Stop overpaying employees. Jobs now have inflated value because most companies assume that everyone they employ or hire is above average, which is a mathematical impossibility.
That's just silly. Obviously not every company can beat "average", but if you are good at attracting and sizing up employees, then of course it's possible to put together a great team where everyone is beyond average. It gets harder the larger you get, but that's a long way from "Mathematical impossibility".

It's also silly because if employees were in fact paid on average more than they produce (more than they're worth), the company doing this would go broke rather quickly.

The "me, first" culture encourages too many job changes and companies are now codependent enablers
Silly old labor! Imagine the silliness of wanting to earn as much as you can by exchanging your time and skill for more money at place A rather than less money at place B!
Of course, management would never support a self-centered, "me first" culture... (move along now, nothing to see here...)
