This is a fundamental misunderstanding of economics. I have worked many different jobs with many different salaries. Not one of these I could have earned the same amount of money working on my own. I didn't have the resources. It was my employer that provided the facilities, the equipment, the customer base, and the know-how that allowed the business to make money. I voluntarily traded my labor for the resources that the employer provided. On my own, I wouldn't have been nearly as productive. I would have starved.
Voluntary exchange works.
Richard Wolff has never run a business. If he had, he would see the world differently.
