      There should be one person doing those tasks for most companies - the owner- who retains a lion’s share of the surplus value created by their workers.

      Employees don’t owe the business anything other than their contracted labor. We are just still suffering the inertia of class traitors in the enormous Baby Boomer cohort, who made the work their entire identity, and who frankly love the taste of boot.
