Which is a quite different thing from saying that there is no such thing as being underpaid.

A worker gets laid off or his company goes out of business, that worker looks high and low everyday for a job -- any job -- but can't find one because no one is hiring, and it's the worker's fault he's unemployed? Seriously?
I'm all for taking personal responsibility into account, but sometimes things can be son out of someone's control that personal responsibility doesn't enter into it.
And the "they chose to work in a doomed industry" argument is just plain specious. Feckless (I love the chance to use that word) even.
