1. What is the distinction that Reading 4.3 makes between owners and employees? Give an example of each.

The distinction that reading 4.2 makes between owners and employees is that they mentioned employees gets treated like absolute nothing while the owners believes that they’re putting in the word when in reality the employees are getting paid less. Owners makes half the money that the employees worked for and workers get paid less than the value they created.

An example is A student’s reliance on their teacher.
