[Lhyr of Chaos] if there were no min. wage limit, there would be people
working for spare pocket change. i know of several industries which would
happily only pay 0.25 cents an hour, or per day. for that matter, more
industries would spring up which would be renting squares of sidewalk to
sleep on. while we're at it, why don't we abolish child labor laws so kids
can go to work whenever they want to.
