Doesn't that, then, lead to a race-to-the-top method of pay that's ultimately unattainable? You pay them so that they're the top 1% so now other people do the same. Eventually, they're only in the top 10%... top 25%.
Rather than throw money at a problem why not find ways to increase overall satisfaction? If money is a component of that, then great, but it doesn't motivate everyone. Often times people are looking for a better quality of life outside of the workplace: things like more time off to spend with their families mean a lot to some people and, if executed properly, don't hurt your bottom line either.
