There's a few options and I don't think outlawing it is a good one. It will continue to happen regardless, because it's particularly difficult to prove and enforce. It is ridiculous for companies to have that as an axiom. What about brilliant students? And what about people taking a break from working (I'd actually think they were more sane than a person who never takes a break from work given they both could afford it)? You could always fight back by lying on your resume and getting a smooth-talking friend as a reference. It's questionably immoral, but corporations are immoral by design. Just pretend you're the corporation of <your birth name here>. I think there's a website service for that as well, I forget the URL.
