This is the belief that roughly 50% of voters in the United States share.
...and by coincidence, 50% of the people do work harder than the other 50% ;>)
Which 50%?
The top 50% of workers ranked by how hard they work, of course.
I'm sure more than 50% of voters believe that not every job should have the same salary.
Of this whole tangent is mostly a non-sequitor because that's not what the law requires or is an attempt to enforce.
I was always the hardest worker in my class, but never found a job because companies said I would want to be paid too much, meanwhile I told them my salary requirements were zero because I was homeless. Was that satire?
