what is the furthest you’d go immorally for a fresh salary? Hell I’d work for Palantir for a nice $250k or be a manager at Evil Corporation Inc if I got a crisp $300k.
or are you a goody two shoes who will stand by your principles even if it means pain!
False choice allows to justify anything.
You can also find a job that pays less but allows you to live with yourself in the values you’ve chosen.
It would be illegal to pay someone less than minimum wage. Some people really don’t have much choice for employment and just have to take what they can get.
Levels of evil vary of course. If the choice was work for the IDF for £250k or doctors without borders for £25k that is a much easier ethical choice to take than choosing between Amazon or unemployed.
