It's not so much working for less than minimum wage that bothers me. It's the
kind of work that below minimum wage jobs require. It's mostly dirty, ugly,
unpleasant work that no one else wants to do.
I'd gladly work for less than minimum wage if my job entailed testing condoms on
nubile teenage virgins.
