    I am consistently referring to ‘wages’ which is a word you’ve now categorically refused to use so far. If I am to avoid anything it is further perversing a discussion on whether Felix the Cat is out of his element here.

      I haven’t refused to use it. I just didn’t because there is no wage in this post. It’s a transaction.

      You bake me a loaf, I give you a slice.

      Can convert it to a wage if you want.

      Bake me 500 loafs per month, I’ll give you a wage of 500 slices per month.

      I’ve done it, I used the word wage. How does this change anything of the argument? It’s still the same. You can’t provide a wage of 500 loafs per month to someone that bakes 500 loafs per month.
