Say it with me: I wasn't born to work. I wasn't born to produce. I certainly wasn't born to keep old rich people rich. I was born to figure out my own purpose, not have it dictated to me.

I don't live to work, I work to live. But it's disingenuous to say anyone with talent can easily find another job. Most workers don't have nearly as much power as tech workers.

Yep. There's a lot of people out there who deserve more protections against employers because they can't just get another job so easy, let alone be able to work from home.
