    In your example it would be perfectly legal, to pay the workers the absolute minimum possible, but it would be a dick move.

    How does that differ from the current way things are done? (especially in the US)

      Largely it doesn’t. There are some boundaries, like minimum wages and maximum working hours, etc. But according to the hypercapitalists, even those minimums are already undue influence by the government.
