It seems very important to you to believe that the lowest paid, most precarious and vulnerable workers choose that freely and are thrilled with it.
I think if you could find some curiosity about why they make those choices it might take you to interesting places, but I can't make you.
- xwdv 4y agoI could have chosen to be a low paid vulnerable worker and not been thrilled with it. The barrier to entry is so low, it seems difficult to believe some people wouldn’t freely choose it out of convenience. Not sure how you can believe 100% of those workers are coerced into that line of work. Everything is a trade off. You could choose to be a software engineer, but it requires a big investment of your time and making critical life choices at the right moments. Much more difficult than simply running gigs.
