In order to not accept terms of an agreement, you need a reasonable alternative. Being able to start your own business that makes money is a good alternative.

If you want to optimize to make money: 1. Get good at coding or sales. 2. Get a job at a tech company doing coding or sales.

You'll get even more money if you become excellent instead of good, and relocate to a major city like SF.

This would involve some kind of collective organizing and action management. We should probably write an app for this first.

You’ll never out-wage bringing value to the market in terms of making money. I have no idea how side-hustles are “defeatist”, when almost no one has the privilege of just “not accepting” to make money in lieu of some wishful thinking to somehow strong-arm companies into giving more money to people.
