This is such a privileged and arrogant stance to take. The VAST majority of people are NOT free to negotiate.

Of course they are. Why wouldn't they be free to negotiate? Of course if you have few skills that are in demand, you are in a worse negotiating position compared to people who are in demand. You can try to acquire skills that are in demand, though.
