What do you think?

So I was thinking, why don't we set wages based upon the profits of a business? Like the more money a business earns for the fiscal year, the higher the wages of the workers? Wouldn't this encourage workers to give their best and hang on to a job? It would also mean more fair wages for the amount of work done and somewhat close the separation of wealth between the upper class and lower class. What do you guys think?

ESOPs, Employee Stock Ownership Plans, give workers the kinds of motivations you speak of. The workers are not just employees, but also owners. But someone who knows the details better than I do could speak better of this subject.
