近两年来，有不少中国大学生在刚毕业后接受“零工资”。这原已非新鲜事，不过，当这种趋势渐渐成为社会、企业、学校及大学生本身开始默认的“某种无奈现实”时，也就同时折射出中国当下社会的一些怪异现象。其实，“零工资”不只违法，还隐含许多社会问题。“零工资”从根本上就违背了“劳动有所得”的原则。这不付成本的劳动力可能会被无良的黑心雇主利用，甚至滥用。“零工资”带来的消极性，会加剧大学生贬值，造成更恶性的竞争，并扰乱就业市场，也会对社会经济造成伤害。

In the past two years, quite a few college graduates have been willing to “work for free” upon graduation, which is no longer something new. However, the tendency has turned into a “no-alternative-available reality” that is facing the society, enterprises, universities and college students. Meanwhile, it has unfolded some odd social phenomena of the present time. As a matter of fact, “no pay” practice remains illegal, and in addition, it suggests many underlying social problems. The practice fundamentally violates the principle of “payment for work done”. The unpaid labors may be exploited, or even abused by those mean and wicked employers. The downside of the practice is that it will aggravate the devaluation of college students, and result in vicious competitions, a disturbed job market and economic damage.
