Do they really not understand that pay is determined by supply and demand.
Why are sanitation workers paid more than housecleaners.... because there are less people willing to become santitation workers than housecleaners.
Higher skilled jobs are higher paid because there are less people capable of doing the role in. Stuff like housecleaner is low paid because it has zero barriers to entry (no qualifications required), there is a large amount of people willing to do it, and no organised body that artificially decreases supply (e.g. union).
Its amazing how ignorant of basic economics these people are.
