Well evil is a ridiculous word, but yes they are immoral people the way I see it. That doesn't mean I want them executed or put in prison. We should simply call something wrong when we think its wrong. Those people are hopefully going to grow and learn. I'm not going to give them praise or any social benefit until they do so, however.
All I'm doing is signalling that I disagree with those peoples life choices on a moral level. I don't see why that's such a cruel thing.
My point is that not all may have a choice, because quitting your job can be scary in the most stable of times, let alone when people are being laid off left and right while small businesses get churned under. "I want to afford life" is a life choice only in the immediate, literal sense of choosing to live.
Hence my proposition to build a system that allows them to quit without jeopardising healthcare coverage, livelihood, all the things that make a person stick with a bad job.
Whoever stays when they don't need to is definitely in the wrong.
