You are assuming they have the luxury of getting a higher paying job. This requires two things
Higher paying jobs exist and are available to them
They can afford to not work until they land one of these jobs.
The first only works if there is a strong economy and employers are not cooperating to set a low “market price” which they have a strong incentive to do
The second only works if there is again a strong economy allowing for savings AND a strong social safety net / welfare system giving the freedom to not make a desperate choice of employment
Im gonna be real with you if this stuff had not occurred to you before now you should just stop having opinions on things.
So you don’t have an answer, just snark. Even in the US, companies pay different rates based on the local cost of living. Where are your posts crying about that?
If they’re underpaid, why do they take the job?

You are dumb. Why would someone choose to work 3 jobs instead of one well paying Job? You are ignoring basic economics and basic survival
Because underpaid is better than starving to death
Have you heard of capitalism?
