If the market determined pay (employees shopped around and companies wanted to pay low), the resulting pay would be, presumably, lower than what people are comfortable with. Why is this? Are there any policies which have resulted in this gap? It seems unnatural to me.

The free market is a load of shit that people sell as an excuse to exploit those who don't have the power to dictate their pay.

I feel like I'm disagreeing with you, but it's not like disagreeing with a complex 'golden age of TV' gray villain; more like disagreeing with a villain that's sitting in a throne and a great hat and twirling a mustache.
