Do people pay plumbers the same in SF as they do in Charlotte?

As an employee I want to be paid the highest that anyone else is paid for the same work. More so if the value generated is the same regardless of location. Yet I can understand employers wanting to help maintain sustainable communities, even where cost of living is high.

Governments too want some control over their currencies and its value.

I don't desperately need to have understanding for governments or corporations. They can all take care of themselves without my help.

My point is it's a collective concern too. Because without coordinating all prices globally there will be variance in costs of living. Which could price out lower valued jobs from certain areas entirely.
