That argument is absurd. It's like saying that an employee has some kind of moral obligation to their employer because without the employer, they wouldn't have a job. The reality is that in a market economy, people voluntarily exchange goods, services, labor, whatever, when the exchange is mutually beneficial. Nobody owes anyone anything in the sense you are talking about.
