    Oh, for heavens sake. I chose to be born into a life where I can only choose the form of my exploitation, in other words?

    No. It is not in any way shape or form a result of my choice that some business owner is prioritizing money over people.

    Capitalism is not a neutral system. And it’s flaws are certainly not the fault of those being exploited.

      Nobody is forcing your labor. You can live off the land mountain man style if you want to.
