You've said that in another branch of this thread.

Do you understand that some people don't have that option? Or cannot move to a new location? Through no fault of their own?

Why can't people use the powers they have delegated to the government to put a stop to these practices, for the growing class of people who are trapped in jobs with conditions similar to this?

I never said they can't lobby the government. I said they shouldn't feel entitled.

If I'm destitute and I'm at a soup kitchen; I wouldn't complain about the food even if it sucks, because the alternative is to starve.

It's the same thing here, beggars can't be choosers. If you want the government to change the rules, go ahead. But don't demonize the company that's literally putting food on your table because you don't like the only job you can find.
