I don't like laziness in myself or others, but I don't think that people should be paid based on how hard they work.

Many people who earn higher wages only do so because they have an education that others couldn't *ever* afford to get. Not because they worked harder.

I don't think that it is availability of education that's driving wage differences. I think it's stable individual differences like talent. There is a stronger relationship between IQ and high wages than there is between availability of education and high wages (Herrnstein & Murray, 1994).
