Economic exploitation

Economic exploitation refers to a situation where individuals or groups are unfairly used for their labor or resources, often resulting in significant benefits for others, typically those in positions of power. This can manifest in low wages, poor working conditions, or lack of benefits for workers, while those in control profit disproportionately. Exploitation can occur in various forms, such as through unfair trade practices, monopolies, or systemic inequalities. It highlights imbalances in economic power and the need for fair compensation and treatment in the marketplace.
