You legitly don't need math to be in SW/HE unless you go down a direct path. I'm not saying it needs to be a 100% split, but workers who go above and provide better production should be rewarded: most aren't, especially within trades. Not many people want a 401k or a retirement plan nowadays because it's a scam. If you take 6 months to educate yourself on the stock market or any financial panning at all you can beat a 401k/retirement plan which keeps you locked into a singular business. 401k/retirement plans are a scam that try to keep you stuck at a place, and if you read the fine print of an employment contract you'd see it.Tech only makes up 8% of the entire workforce. I think you might be viewing this from inside a bubble.
Absolutely if a person has the educational aptitude to develop SW or hardware then go for it. But that is not reality not all people are predisposed or have the mathematical abilities for these fields.
So your examples are not applicable to the workforce or economy as a whole.
Some industries or sectors are much more driven by capital purchasing requirements. And less dependent on highly skilled labor it’s just a fact.
The economic value is stored in the investors and owners previous profit gains.
Is a owner who has labored for 25 years and has been accountable for the financial management legal exposure and market risk of their business expected to share equally the profits of someone who has been there for 2 years?
These things are real.
And lest we forget all of those horrible corporations who don’t pay there employees enough. It is many of those same corporations that make almost everyone’s 401k’s or retirement plans.
When we negate the life of our employees, especially the ones who are in a job that provides a foundation for other jobs, we are killing our own economy. You can't have the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer unless you want a problem on your hand. Sure the rich should be able to get "richer", but the poor or 50% need to be able to afford food, living, and entertainment else we have a problem that is fundamental to the human experience. This is why anti-work and people protesting about work is getting worse, especially retail/food/amazon/train people.
Almost every platform you look at you only see business owners ranting and raving about profits and how good they are doing, you don't see many business owners bitching about how hard it is to own and run a buisness. You see workers hitching and complaining about how hard it is to live day to day and make money, you see very little workers bragging about how easy life is and how much they make and how easy it is to survive.
