Well, if somebody offer you a job for a pitiful wages, along with food and shelter. Without it, you will die. Would you take it? Or would you not?
Is it really being "taken advantage of"?
Moreover, if the new economy mean you can afford more stuff, are you really being taken advantage of?
I find it presumptive for me to judge a relationship between a wealthy capitalist and the employee no matter how right I might be. For whatever reason, the employee agree with the capitalist to do X work and be compensated Y stuff.
What the use of having the right to self-determination if other people decides your boss shouldn't be allow to make a voluntary contract with you.
Perhaps, "fairness" is much higher than the principle of voluntarism?
