The habit of requiring unpaid labor seems to be a growing system of exploitation by the wealthy.

They want an outcome that profits them, while putting in minimal inputs.

It's delusional & unsustainable to expect high quality output while limiting your inputs to the independently wealthy, the children of the wealthy, the charity cases of the wealthy, or those willing to starve to surmount a daunting threshold to entry.

In a mass population of people who are desperate it makes total sense by Capitalism to exploit them as many people are surplus now anyway to system (over-crowding / previous false boosts of economy) so until the population naturally reduces (like talking about animals) from such ways of death / cheating people to supply those in power with free / desperate labor... then makes sense to 'use' them (abuse them),.
And then when demand is not high enough, capitalism can change to something else with a bit more of a carrot! 🥕

It is almost perfect in it's own bad way. Bare minimals.

We need food and / or work... worst is not having either and then one usually can think more on these things (but in reality yes better think about it now).

It's always been about starvation somewhere, didn't even after WWII, perhaps balance just go heavier on one side and now finally might return back to 'equality' or real 0 as all wealth should / would if people don't take care of things or do their history homework earlier... and together!
