And who made the laws that benefit these businesses? It's hard to believe there's a logical rationale for paying people such low wages. "If I paid them a living wage, I'd go out of business." I worked a summer job for a couple of years, and for some reason, state law (NH) allowed them to work us overtime without paying us overtime.
Overtime? I know some truck drivers (18 wheelers) who regularly put in 14 hour days and never get overtime. That is done all the time in the trucking industry.
