What if you need that job to make ends meet?


That's the real problem of course: we're dependent on food we can't grow, and houses we can't build, and that makes us unfree. If everybody was automatically provided with the basic necessities, we'd be free to negotiate on a more equal footing.

Ha, you don't get it, at all.

You should read the history of labour laws.
