The question is whether anyone is worse off because of it, and my comment points out that contrary to popular rhetoric, if anyone is getting hurt by it, it's not the employees.

If you think nobody is getting hurt by it, it's not a problem, it's just envy.

It's certainly possible to view these things from other perspectives than a narrow transactional economic perspective. Can you imagine some of those?

Yes, jealousy and envy that other people do in fact make more money than I do. This is not a real societal problem, it's a personal and human nature problem.
