That isn't a valid reason to stop paying someone though.
Since they need that pay in order to survive.
So every developed nation requires employers to pay their fired workers a couple of months of pay in advance.
> I don't want to work at this company anymore so I quit, I just don't feel like working here anymore
Seems ok for the employee to quit "at will" so why not for the employer?
Bc companies aren't people. Corporations and humans are in no way two equal entities. There is no reason to think the laws should be set in any way other than ensuring people have their needs met.
