Yeah thats what I said. You really need to know what the comparative wages are for the area to know how "bad off" the workers are.
As for your The guy who sleeps on the ground. He is there because he chooses not to utilize the suppport systems we have available in this country. There are shelters, and there are places he can go to get food. Where exactly does he sleep and live when it get ICY cold outside? Im not saying his life is a picnic, but he has it better than the peasents in most of the third world nations.
