A third major theme emerging from the comments centered on fairness and the devaluation of specialized skills. Mid-career professionals, including carpenters, security officers, and first responders, expressed deep frustration over the narrow pay gaps the policy would create.

This is an obvious case of sowing class division.
Workers aren’t so easily deceived.
