Except the US, where long-term debt makes educated workers more desperate for any job they can find, making exploiting them easier. When the guy working for you knows that working unpaid overtime is the difference between a job and debt collectors, he’ll grin and bear it.

That is a short-term advantage, and then only for some. We as a whole are only just beginning to see the long-term effects.
