I actually don't see the connection between a "minimum standard of living" and a "minimum required experience." Is this the case with company under discussion, Whole Foods? If that requirement is a high school diploma, well that's why we strive for universal high school, but I'm not sure what the connection is here. Please, don't use intuition from high paying intelligentsia type careers to the majority of laborers in the US, much less the world. I do grant I'm not sure the government with the law that exists can do anything about Whole Foods, or should it, and thus, I am making a bigger point about that the government is supposed to function for the public good. I think the glimmer in Whole Foods is more an indictment of the system in the US than anything.
