Yes. The greatest good for the greatest number wins.

It depends on many other factors. Neither is better in a country where the cost of a loaf of bread is $300.

People who work harder should get paid more.

Then GM line workers should make more than CEOs.

How about a country where the least paid have enough to live on, and after that there is no ceiling?

The least paid in the US DO have enough to live on. No they cant have nice fancy houses, big cars, cable TV hooked up to a big screen plasma set and all that, but I don't know one single person that works a full time job that is starving to death.
