Call it a failed Socialist experiment

As far as what you were referencing with Matt, I don't think you were reading the post. His comment was that many Millennials and generations after them are starting to seek more out of a job than the most money. Which is relevant to Price's decision to make less individually so his employees could make more. Which doesn't have anything much to do with "gadgets and gizmos."

Benton, I'm not so sure that folks seeking reward from their job that is deeper than money, is such a new ideal.  I've known a great many individuals, in my lifetime that are my age (46) and older that chose career paths that made a difference, over a career with a higher payout.  I'm talking about teachers, nurses, social workers, law enforcement, fire fighters, etc.  Most of the folks that work those sort of jobs see it as a calling, what they were put here to do.  As for myself, I'm kind of in that same boat.  I used to get great personal satisfaction from working my hands-on trade.  It was very gratifying to see the smile on a homeowner's face, when they would see their finished kitchen or bath for the 1st time.  Just the same in my new profession, it will give me great honor to attach my seal to legal documents (surveys) pertaining to property that people so dearly love.  Sure, money is great, but client satisfaction is even greater.
