Minimum Wage
I often hear the above discussed by the department of labour over what farm workers or domestic workers need to be payed. Fascinating though is what is often neglected (benignly of course) about the actual meaning of the word minimum wage. Minimum wage is in fact a very derogative term. It means the employer would love to have workers but he will pay because that is required by law otherwise he would love to have them working for him for free. In reality minimum wage is paid to people whom the employer would love to have them as slaves. Secondly the minimum wage is not about meeting personal needs but is about keeping the person alive so that he would come to work the next day. It is the money that keeps a "slave" alive.
If you are paid a minimum wage just know that you are preferred as a slave.
