Nobody has to work in a sweatshop.

They can start their own.

They are called small businesses.

But you are back to square one.

You are now working for the worst, most tyrannical, stupidest, most unreasonable, lowest paying bastard you have ever worked for and you will never, never get along with him/her and they will never, never admit you are right, or give you an even break. You have to work 24 hours a day under a constant camera eye and the boss either starves you, or overfeeds you, never gives you praise and withholds benefits in order to buy himself booze. He will even use physical punishment on you and sneer at your suffering. He has been known to force feed drugs on you to keep you working, will listen to your complaints but NEVER give in to them, and vacations? you might as well be talking to a thick, brick wall. Work nights -- all night? No extra pay. Stat holidays? Work harder. Labour board? They will never hear about work conditions. They ran the Gulag with more humanity.

That person you will work for is yourself.

I'll take sweatshops for 500, Alex.
