Doctors are paid better than SEs, arent they?

I think depends upon the SWE and depends upon the doctor's specialization.

Doctors do have a credential system that sets them up for a longer more stable career path with few ageism concerns. But all things considered more money now for less time investment is more valuable.

I think average doctors should get paid more but doctors who work in private places probably need to get the same treatment as high end SWE.

But all in all I think worker's share of wealth shoud raise but that's a bloody question.

Do you have any ideas about how to make software cheaper?

Yeah, don't pay people that write back end javascript more than firemen. Let's start with that.

What gives you such a special insight on what kind of work should be valued and remunerated at precisely what levels?

The only reason people are paid more to write software is that it's valuable + hard and time consuming. If it was easier + faster, software producers wouldn't make as much money. Either that or you can reduce it's value in some way (this seems like a pretty bad way to go though).

The way you're phrasing it now it's like you're imagining that there's some central committee to appeal to in order to change this fact, but I imagine you already know that's not how things work -- so why would you phrase it like that?

> SW wages need to fall

lol no. I'm not taking a paycut in a world where CEOs making 400x their bottom paid workers are the ones greedily raising prices across the board.
