I prefer workers to be able to freely alienate their labor. That is capitalism. That means refusing to alienate it at times.

You are obviously no capitalist.

I'm a stone capitalist, and being a capitalist means honoring the obligations you freely took on.

No one forced them to take a transit job that carried with it the legal obligation to show up for work.

If I were offered a job under those conditions I might have said no. But they didn't. That's life.

"Capitalism" does not mean "a fantasy world in which no one has any responsibilities or obligations, only privileges and benefits."
