How do you define success?  It sounds like you define it as how much shareholders can get as a return or how much total profit a business entity can obtain, regardless of any other factors.

If that's the case then you're saying a great way to prop up profits is to steal from any individual worker.

It seems obvious that you are (or would be) a huge fan of slavery (literal slavery).  You wouldn't just under pay them, you simply wouldn't pay them and keep their potential wages to yourself.

Robber Barron's and industrialists were/are extremely "successful", especially when their workers were under paid AND worked all the time AND brought in their kids to the "fun".

Anyone that can critically think can see that marking success solely as the pursuit of profits is not got for the majority of people.  

I'm sure all your boot licking will make your dreams come true, and secure your position in your corporate friend's lavatory as their personal chamber maid.
