This is part of the false dichotomy you are not understanding. It's not actually a valid choice if there are no options. And that is what this is actually about, understanding how we have no good options, and what to do about it. I recommend start digging in and we all question or own understanding and acceptance of the system. Is it actually working with even a simple majority in the best position we can be?

Currently employing 130 wage slaves and unduly profiting from their margins, and not satisfied with the overall system at all.

If you are a US citizen in the US, you have options. There's absolutely nothing an employer can do to force them to stay.
I understand your point that a typical US citizen has options where they work.

My point is when all options include wage slavery it's not an actual option. That's it, a false dichotomy.

And that is what the OP is about. It's exploring a fundamentally different system which I understand is scary.

Please tell me about "wage slavery" in the US with US citizens and why they have no options.
Asking this question leads me to suspect you have no true curiosity or willingness to learn a new perspective as it's literally a Google away. And then you will reply in another direction that justifies your narrow world view that is of course justified 100% by your experience. This is not effective discourse and I see you doing it all over.

It’s a well-documented economic concept. You can find plenty on it if you're actually curious about the perspective. And understanding it thoroughly is a strong prerequisite to seriously engaging with other people with intent to learn. It's work you need do yourself.

It would have taken less effort to answer the question than what you did write.
