It is not - the choice is on you to pick this employer or another one.
But kids grow up - it doesn't stay this way forever.
If you ban the capacity to do this, then the role stops existing.
What is better for employees - to have the option to get training and have to stay at the company one year, or to not have the option at all?
It's not a crisis to have a devaluation.
The real economy has way many more prices than this one - from each store of anything in the country that negotiates from straws to bread. The difference is that these ones happen in a system that has a paper trail from the doctor, to the insurance, and this admin burden is only (apparently) worth it because the vast majority of money in healthcare goes through tax-advantaged insurance.
Cash based payment should suffice for 50~70% of healthcare expenditues and it would have more prices and not have expensive and abusive billing processes.
This is an extensive topic I cover for the LatAm community in a podcast - Tecnologia informal.
Interest existed for 100's of years before the fiat model.
Interest is not paid on money, its paid on time of allocated capital. If you dont have money you can still collect interest in the form of goods - I give you 100 seeds, you return 1000 seeds to me next year. Without interest there is certainly not lending, so the owner has to invest themselves or consume the capital.
It would definitely be better that investment were not issued as debt and were always equity to prevent many ugly side-effects, but thats not a configuration applicable to everything, so this is what you get.
> In any other context the optimal interest rate is always zero because any higher than that prevents investments due to artificially high profitability requirements beyond what is available in the real economy.
This is mixing macro-economics with micro-economics. Even in a contraction economy you have growing businesses, which mean there is demand for capital for production itself. 0% interest rate means there is no demand for capital, which is not true even in North Korea.
Interest is just a price, like any other good in the economy.
The moral issue is not "inequality", the moral issue is eugenics - building their behavior to your desire.
"You know, my son was never what they promised me he would be" gets me to tears every time.
Debt in general has very ugly side-effects and incentives, specially when it is levered, but banning interest altogether would basically destroy modern capitalism.
The reality is that most of the sentiment against uber is against the new kid in the block, not at all a moral or policy position.
