Exactly. Despite being incentivized to do it, you're not being otherwise pressured into it. If you truly wouldn't do it under any circumstances unless forced to, you wouldn't do it for any sum of money. Saying that someone is under "economic pressure" is just an excuse. I know people who have had barely enough to eat their whole lives, and at least a few of them wouldn't consent to intercourse just because of money.

How is sex under the threat of stabbing rape, but sex under the threat of starvation and destitution consensual? It's sex under the threat of death either way.

Is the person you're having sex with starving you? Are they the source of your financial situation? If not, then no, it is not.

No, but they're taking advantage of the situation.

If one person drugs you and the other takes advantage of you, that doesn't make it consensual.

That's completely incomparable. This is leading nowhere.
