When your entire existence relies on exploiting the work of the people who are "under you", of course you want them to work harder, faster and more. They'd crack out the whip if they'd get away with it.

These rotten billionaires don't care about our little lives or how much we enjoy or very short time on this planet, they only care about maximizing share prices and filling their pockets with bonuses that the workers are earning for them.

They get away with it in some countries. The last Fifa World Cup was built by modern day slaves. And people still traveled there, sponsors like Coca Cola and Hyundai/Kia stood proudly behind them
