- batista 14y agoAnd as other things, substinence wages are not context dependent, and are very common in places which "free trade" proponents tout. Plus, their arguments which amount to "working in a sweatshop for our cheap shoes is doing them a favor, because otherwise they'd have no jobs at all" I always found as mere justification for the continuation of slavery and colonization in modern terms.
