Being forced to pay competitive wages would be a major benefit to poor/uneducated workers and their families.
I always love the line, “Americans won’t do X kind of labor.”
Nope, not for $3/hr. Working in a field for $30/hr? I suspect there would be little difficulty hiring.
You are correct. I think that a substantial portion of people don’t connect the dots and understand that companies only produce goods that consumers want/need.
