an american having a master's degree and getting low wages could mean they're indeed poor. a near-lifetime of non-dischargeable debt repayment.

They're clearly people who had choices in life.

That categorization encompasses what.. 98% of everyone?

Your bar for sympathy may be a bit high.

Well it's certainly not going to include people that have $13/hr jobs in America.

well, they presumably weren't born into slavery only to be worked brutally hard then tortured and murdered by a slave owner, so i guess they're worthy of a sneer or two.

I'm not sneering at them. I'm objecting to the categorization of them as a victim being exploited. They're doing useful work and getting paid for it.

you haven't established how that is necessarily not-exploitation.

Oh it is exploitation. It's not like there's a victim, though. The drivers likewise exploit Google's insufferable desire for street photography in exchange for cash.

is this purposeful equivocation?
