Moreless, the problem is that labor is a commodity. Corporations control the price of food and everything else. I laugh when I see job postings that say "We offer a Competitive Salary". Yeah competitively low as you can get away with.
That's why unions are so important to the regular blue-collar guy. They keep corporations from enslaving working people at a "minimum wage".
They don't give a fuck about you. They'll work you to death and replace you once you break. Why do you think corporate job turner over is 2-3 years? Because they're required to give people a small (3-5%) cost of living raise every year to offset inflation. After 3 years they figure they're over paying you and increase your workload and pressure you to work longer hours. That's their MO.
Most people quit. Others get laid off. Then they hire recent grads for cheap and the cycle repeats.
