I must not understand what you're asking here but what's wrong with that? If someone wanted to work for $3/hour, why not let them?

- neilparikh 15y agoBecause the minimum wage is higher than $3/hour.
- nkassis 15y agoIt think you missed his point that he doesn't believe in minimum wage. At least that what I get from his comment.
- h_r 15y agoYes that's right. Not that I don't believe in minimum wage, per se, but that I don't believe in laws generally that prevent people from interacting with each other in accordance with each person's self interest. Or if I want to avoid pedantic arguments, maybe I should say "perceived" self interest. I'm sure there are many paternal government supporters who will do their best to convince a jobless poor person that it's actually bad to work for a rate that some bureaucracy doesn't like.
