Give them just enough and they’ll work forever in hopes for more. Where can they leave their jobs to? To another job that they typically don’t want?
This of course excludes passionate workers like doctors that put out good into the world, or even construction u can find satisfaction in building houses for families, but u said specifically corporate wage slaves, as a corporate worker there is no real output you’re making, nobody dreams of working corporate unless you’re sold that dream by someone who wants you to believe in it
