In East Asian economies, it's perfectly acceptable but I'd argue that they care of their employees much better but obviously not without strings attached-productivity is low due to insane working hours.

For instance, my cousin works at Samsung and although he is pretty much a highly paid slave, he is better off than most Koreans...

I don't know if it's right to act entitled. After all, we are receiving money in exchange for our time. If one is not happy with it, then wayne gretzky it.
