It’s very cool and popular to criticize capitalism, and I get it. It’s messed up beyond belief that so much of your life is spent working and stressing about whether you’ll be able to afford to be alive. The phrase «cost of living» can radicalize people because why does it cost so much money to keep your head above water? 

While it’s easy to complain about your job and capitalism, it’s much more challenging to do something about it. While some strong-willed workers go on strike or unionize for better working conditions, one TikToker recently went viral for offering a simple solution: just quit! If you’re working a job and being exploited by a greedy boss, you should just leave, throwing caution to the wind. As anyone living paycheck to paycheck will tell you, it’s not that easy. Anyone who has to pay their bills knows that quitting a job will probably create more problems than it solves.
