I appreciate the thought but which would you choose:
Full time minimum wage US worker at $7¼/hr or $15,080/yr vs $20,000 one time purchase?
I agree with you that these things are likely underpaid labor (maybe including literal slavery, or job conditions close enough to count anyways), but I don't think your argument is going to be convincing to anyone actually considering getting one.
