I agree with the first sentence.  I have problems with the second
sentence -- nothing personal, just a general reluctance to support
any statement of the form "X should be paid for Y" without further
qualifications.  I definitely agree with "X should be paid in
accordance with an agreement to exchange work or time for money".
I cannot agree with "X should be paid for Y" without specifying
exactly who should be doing the paying.

With my previous paragraph in mind, I disagree; thus there is not
100\% agreement.
