   Careers which people are drawn to through affinity and altruism, such as nursing and teaching, will be maximally exploited by capitalist society, because a large part of the compensation people feel for such jobs lies in the gratification of doing an important job which is integral to society and community.

   Reject corporate society's imposition of exploitative and corrupt self-reinforcing systems.

   Build up communal education and health systems based on mutual aid and affinity.

   End the exploitation of the empathetic.

   Enlist the altruistic workers to be a part of mutualist systems where they are compensated fairly, monetarily if possible, but more importantly, through mutual support and care.

     For clarification. people who work in altruistic careers will be exploited because the people who work in these fields do not see any alternatives to fulfilling these social necessities, and so feel they have no choice but to accept the exploitation to fulfill what they see as a necessary role in society.

     Those with power over others don't care about how necessary or important these social roles are and don't care about how the exploitation affects those who are subjected to it.

     All they see, all they want to see, is that they can get away with paying people in these roles significantly less than what it would otherwise cost to employ anyone of similar experience or qualifications in any other field.
