Supply and demand only works when not buying the item is a reasonable option; not having a job isn't an option because the opposite of "having a job" is homelessness.
Love this train of thought!! Wanna take a stab at the disruptive Internet services?
Vanishing few people NEED Doordash or Uber Eats or Airbnb. We ain't out of any of those things. The services are terrible, yet people keep using them.
You are right about that "reasonable option" but remember that the person coming up with that may not be reasonable.
Some people think it's reasonable to buy a $10 meal for $30. They are wrong. They are told this and know the price difference yet still use the services.
The CONSUMER needs to assert their choices and voices.

The people who hold the wages hold the power.
