    The full value of labor can be considered meaningfully only at the level of the whole enterprise.

    You and your coworkers collectively contribute labor worth the value of the products you create collectively, minus the costs of inputs and operation.

    How such value is distributed within the enterprise is simply a choice by those who control the enterprise. No objective solution is available. Owners pay each worker the minimum possible for the labor to be provided, which under current systems is different for each kind of labor, due to labor commodification over markets represented by the law of supply and demand,.

        I am not understanding the relevance or meaning of your objection in context, but if you are seeking to protect the interests of insurance companies, then perhaps you should not be participating in a space created for advancing the interests of workers.

            Doctors are not in control of society, and no society has ever been controlled dominantly by doctors. Doctors also are not a completely uniform group who all share the same values and beliefs.

            What appears is that your attitude reflects a sense of hostility and superiority, which is not representative of how every doctor looks upon every janitor, and from my own experience, such animus is quite uncommon among doctors.

                I support doctors. I support janitors. I support all workers.

                I perceive no meaningful conflict among workers, and I perceive confusion in anyone who locates the overarching antagonisms in our society as between various workers based on the kinds of labor they provide.

                I still have no understanding of any objection you are giving that would seem relevant.

                I also have no idea why you are fixated on signs in the hospital, but I hope you find a way to resolve your distress.
