    What if you are a shitty employee and the capitalist doesn t notice. You are getting payed way to much for the little work you do. Or you are working solo and selling your own goods those are choices.

      For your first, outliers exist in every system, but a system is its averages and not its outliers. For the latter, you can’t really be expected to compete with mass manufacturing on price per quality.

        You obviously cannot compete with mass production goods, but there are a lot of products like food, art etc, that benefit from being unique. I agree tho it is not the norm, but still a choice.
