Adam Smith’s theory of wage differentials is least consistent along with a case wherein a: (i) chef in a five-star restaurant earns a higher wage than a cook into a fast food restaurant. (ii) security guard for a U.S. firm into Baghdad is paid more than a security guard in Denver. (iii) bulldozer operator is paid more per hour in the winter in Alaska than in the summer. (iv) gas station in a small town pays clerks higher wages than are paid through an almost the same gas station across the street. (v) window washer in a high-rise building is paid more than any janitor in identical building.
