I am seriously thinking the peonage law might apply here.
If my employer charges me an arbitrary debt or fine that I have no due process to contest upon condition of employment.
The fine that would be imposed is taking income earned therefore, the time that it took me to earn that income was time working under involuntary servitude as I was not paid for the time.
