    The dominant view of workers is not that they create value, but that they are an expense that should be cut whenever possible to allow for the profit to go to the capitalists. They don’t have to justify it, because fundamentally they believe that all of it is theirs. Rather, it means that anything that increases costs has to be justified to them, because the default position is that they deserve 100% of every bit of wealth created.
