- The fact that capitalists and business owners know to invest their money and rely on it to live comfortably. Even if lower-income individuals invest money, it isn’t as much and not as significant as compared to business owners.
- The implications are exploiting workers’ labor power. Encouraging workers to work faster for the same amount of money as everyone else, just because they do it better. I do see it every day because working in retail, you see favoritism happen where some workers get more hours, but they look tired and drained due to the stress from management and customers.

Absolutely, I agree with that. For business owners, their investment allows for the money to work for them, yet most people grind daily just to simply get by. That is crazy. Retail favoritism overall makes it even tougher. Some workers get more than their hours, and this leads to burnout because management piles on all of the pressure, and all of the stress from dealing with the customers is unhelpful. That they expect people to work faster, so better without rewarding them for caring about how drained they get, is frustrating. The whole system is sometimes realized as being unbalanced.
