They're driving down prices for everyone in the industry because they don't pay as much to live or because they still live with their parents or whatever. It's hurting everyone in the long run, because it's forcing EVERYONE (except perhaps the very long established designers) to lower their prices to compete and it's degrading the industry.

Almost every industry works this way, with laws of supply and demand and competition.

The solution is to kill off all the other designers.
