+1 to Jochen's post.

In NZ any company who pays less then minimum wage to it's employees is asking 
for trouble, because even if the 'employee/contractor' is only worth that 
amount, the DOL and employment tribunral will always side with the employee 
on these matters.

In addition - any person / company who has to lower their prices dramatically 
during challenging times had a poor business model anyway. I'd expect some 
lowering of prices when supply outstrips demand, but $10 per hour is too low 
(If you're any good).

Any opinions expressed herein are my own personal ones only and I am not 
involved in the web development business.
