Then don’t go to businesses that don’t pay their employees a fair wage. Don’t just handwave it away while contributing to the problem.
What's your solution to knowing which businesses pay their employees a fair wage? How do I know where to shop? Is there a website which catalogs this information?
Ask the employees whether they feel that they're being treated well and paid correctly?
They can't exactly answer that honestly.
Why not? No freedom of speech in the USA?
When there's no social safety nets and your livelihood depends on brown nosing your boss because most states have at-will employment, then yes, there's effectively no freedom of speech while you are working.
