Business that make their money by exploiting people should not exist, because they create the illusion illustrated here: that somehow earning less money than is livable is better than earning none at all. If you don't have enough money to pay your rent and eat, what is the point exactly? You're still screwed, it's just going to take slightly longer.
And from this we then go the side hustles and the app workers and all the rest of the stuff that let us pretend someone working 120 hours a week for pennies is "doing good."

If this were true, why would people in bad jobs continue to show up for work?
Okay, you've identified that shifting people from precarious existence to outright starvation and homelessness will make others more aware of their plight. How will that help, exactly? Are they going to somehow turn around public opinion on the welfare state? Start a Communist Revolution? Because it seems like they will just be worse off, and we will be more aware, and nothing else will happen.
Or, far more likely, the CEO needs to make a few million less so the people who operate his business can EAT.
