Couldn't you just pay them enough so that they don't need a second job?
The article also quotes
As if people working two jobs are stealing and not working in exchange for proper value of money.
It's because the system is designed to keep us paid just enough to live and keep buying from companies, but not enough to have true independence. Working two jobs is cheating that system by giving you more money and freedom than they want you to have. Once you have financial security you can start to wonder about how fucked up this "system" truly is.
Except they're not even paying us enough to live anymore
