If you are of the view that everyone does what they do because they're somehow economically forced into it then you're going to see the world as a very dark place indeed. Whether you're correct in that view or not is almost irrelevant because the effect will be the same. It's going to infect your every interaction. Honestly, I find this more of a common sentiment amongst historically well off folk. I grew up poor and this sort of "everything is awful because we're slaves" mindset didn't exist. Not everyone has the skill or capital to apply for any job or start any business tomorrow. That much is obvious. That's a very different concept from slavery.
