Should there be a minimum wage in Iraq?

Why should Halliburton get away with paying people only $.45 per hour (that is 45 cents). They say we should not compare to wage levels in the USA or even in Iraq but in Sierra Leonne where they only make $150. a year. Well it is no wonder they want illegal aliens in America so they don't have to pay American wages and yet can still feel good about themselves. Remember though in the words of Jesus "When in Rome do as the Romans do" I am amazed at how everyday I learn more dispicable things the GOP does to people...You would think the well would run dry by now...

1. The third world is a vision of what they want the economy to be like

Corporations have all power; no minimum wage, no worker safety laws, no environmental standards, just profit.

It's what they want for the united states, too.
