why does someone have to be exploited?
You work 2x as hard, you get 2x, no? you take on a risk, you should get more too, no? you have a brilliant idea, you don't deserve to be compensated for it? you invest time and money in some venture, you don't deserve a bigger cut in that case either?
I wouldn't call it exploitation, it's just getting out of life what you put into it...
for example, surgeons don't make few hundred thousand per year just because they were born with a cute face... they earn that because they worked hard half their life to be trained in that profession...
same logic follows for some "rich" business owner, he isn't exploiting anyone, he is just getting out life what he put into it...
