“The Antiprofanity League” argues that social injustices like unemployment, poverty, and crime arise from systems that falsely value some people's time over others. It critiques the prevailing economic models that reward certain individuals more, based on education or perceived value. The inequality created highlights the inequity and artificial justification behind these practices. The author contends that all work contributing to value should be compensated equally, the time of one is equal in value to the time of anyone else. This simple modification in how we approach renumeration is what is needed to solve long-standing social problems.
