Here's the nice thing about it: they are! If they don't work (for any of the equally exploitative companies in their country) they die.

They are being coerced to participate in the capitalist system, maybe. Not to be a “chatter”.
No argument against protections, though.

And yet lots of people don't work for companies and still manage not to die. I wonder how they do it? A mystery, I guess.

Maybe you should take it up with your deity of choice. Capitalism didn't make humans need to eat to survive. Or perhaps you should try to bring back slavery, to make others work so you can eat without doing any work yourself. I admit it's an attractive proposition, but I'm not too fond of the impact on others since I'm a bit of a softie
