Why do you think software engineers getting paid less means everyone will be getting underpaid? How are you deciding what the correct level of pay is?

That’s twisting my words and deflecting my question. What i said was that instead of having at least some people earning what everyone else should we will instead have everyone earning a low wage. Worse, cutting pay from software workers would mean less tax paid and less money available. The money will accrue in tax havens and banks well hidden from you and i. Also do you think that software devs are taking money away from the jobs you mentioned? Do you think the money they will loose will be magically diverted to pay raises for workers in other industries instead of filling in the pockets of those inciting this class war?
