    The main problem is that people who feel trapped don’t have the financial stability to go without income for any period of time, which greatly limits the ability to find a new job.

        Because you never know what’s going to happen at the new job. You might be given circumstances you cannot adhere to or deal with people you simply can’t put up with.

        Starting a new job is always a gamble and can fail easily

        If you quit because of bad conditions, like unsafe conditions.

        If you get a new job and put in two weeks, your first job might immediately fire you. Teo weeks without pay is a crisis for a lot of people.

        If you need to spend time applying and interviewing you might not be able to work your crappy job during that time.

        These are US issues for low income earners who are afraid of getting a new job.

      Not every human, just the ones with economic value.

      We should seriously discuss how our society should treat the rest.
