Yeah, in a lot of ways I feel like this has the same vibe as "CEO believes that children should not be allowed to work". Perhaps somewhere out there is a kid that would like more money, and so denying them opportunities sounds very anti-freedom - but it would moreover be a flag about something broken in society and their ability to take care of themselves.
