And I'm not sure why this got downvoted. Not that it matters, but I'm very curious about why people were not happy with the questions. My fundamental belief is that if someone chose to accept an offer and then work hard, it's not slavery but free will. But well, I guess American culture is interesting in the regard. If I study STEM hard in school, I'll be a "teacher's pet" or a nerd who knows only "how to cram". On the other hand, if I free throw under a hoop 4000 times a day, I'm DA man and it's worth the highest praise on the level of "have you seen the LA of 4:00am". Or if I'm a banker or a startup employee who worked 100hr+, I'm building the future of the US, yet if I worked in a fab 996 on my own will, I'll be a slave?
