How much is an hour of your labor worth?
How much is your house worth?
It's not what you paid for it. It's not what you think it's worth or what you're willing to sell it for.
Your house is worth whatever someone else is willing to pay you for it. You negoitate to determine what that price is. You may choose not to sell at that price but that does not change its value. The buyer will walk across the street and buy a comparable house.
How much is an hour of your labor worth? Whatever the public is willing to pay for it. When someone buys a ticket they don't care how much you made last year or what you think you're worth. You may choose not to work at that price but the customer will walk across the terminal and buy a ticket on Southwest or Jetblue.
All the resolve and solidarity in the world is not going to change that. We are either going to change or become extinct.
