I work for a living because the alternative would be to starve to death
(a very long process in my case, but an eventuality non-the-less).
I think way over 65% of my co-workers are in the same boat.  Does
this mean that we are exploited and that the government should attempt
to keep our products out of the marketplace?

What did you say?  We wouldn't starve if we weren't working.  That's
right, minimum wage at McFast-food or welfare.

I don't see your logic at all.

Isn't it interesting how the beautiful little red flower in the forest
becomes so ugly when you discover it's a candy wrapper.
