Look at most feeder or GA ops, you will make as a captain a salary not too far off from what an new airline fo makes. In fact in some countries you will make more.
So the excuse that you can't make a decent wage by traditional means is lacking. It is pure f u, me first mentality. But you don't seem to realize that by doing this cue jumping you are taking cash directly out of your future pocket.
Not only that, when you pay to do a job that someone else gets paid to do, it's a bit tragic. It shows very little self value and undermines all of your so called "peers".
If you can't see that you are damaging the industry for your fellow pilots, please stop and realize that you are actually damaging your own future earning potential.
And if any of you apologists think you can make a case against that, I invite you to tell us how someone willing to pay to do my job doesn't undermine me.
