Why not? These large corporations would pay you $1/hour if the market conditions let them.

Because you are opening yourself to legal issues. Just because you think the system is unfair does not mean you should "be a dick".

The people in companies make the decisions and if you are good to them generally they will be good to you. Don't make bad blood by doing the wrong thing.

They promote you very slowly in big companies (years between), so really they aren't that good to you.
