If I had a business, I'd pay people their worth because I wouldn't want to lose them. I live in a idyllic world where employers pay employees their value.

Switching employers is one of only two ways to really advance in the world (the other being quitting "employment" altogether and starting one's own business). From 1995-2000 I was getting 10-15% raises every single year, but I only stayed at the company because I liked the people there so much. I still miss some of the people, but there's absolutely no question that leaving one's employer is the best thing to do, financially and career-wise. Provided there's another one waiting, of course. :) Honestly, if that was a surprise I have to wonder what universe you’ve been living in.
