besides, the minimum wage laws in effect now do nothing for this. just means
the market price for their skills is dropping. get new skills, or get
another job.
its the same with any commodity. if there are too many of an object for
sale, the price goes down. If the objects are in high demand the price goes
up.

Say you're applying for a job. You have a family of 5 and you give the
minimum figure that your family can subsist on.
Someone else comes along, and since their culture encourages whole
family units, up to 20 people, to live together and share expenses they
can undercut you by half of your figure.
Do you think this is a good thing?
