That's absurd. Even if you make a (false) claim that they're only able to work at a call center and all other professions are closed to them, there are many different call centers that all compete for the same labour.
> Working at a call center is akin to emergency medical care, but for financial surviving.
If you want to provide care, you can do it. I do it myself. But it's completely immoral to put it as a responsibility on somebody who just buys these people's services. When you go to buy groceries, you don't suddenly become ethically responsible for the grocer's financial situation, do you?

To be fair, being call center agent sucks in many places. Maybe you don’t get a camera installed in your home, but breaks are short, shifts are long and you get 5 minutes to eat lunch. You can always go work for Amazon at the warehouse. But I’ve heard it’s not that great either.
- golergka 5y agoThat's absolutely true, but that's not some nefarious agent being evil. That's just society as a whole not assigning a lot of value to unskilled labour.
