I make 20 cents per hour.

Quote from misterno:

it is not fake, go to any third world country, you can see this

I even see worse in remote countryside of middle eastern countries where people work only for food

At least this guy getting paid money

Is he paid enough enough to buy food for himself & his family?
 
in certain gold mines in Peru the workers are paid nothing. 1 day a month they can keep whatever gold they mine. that is their wages.

Yes but not like the food we are used to. He probably only eats rice which costs about 75 cents per kilo in his country. 4 hours of work will probably feed his family for the day. The other 2 dollars he makes is to pay rent, buy clothes, shoes. Obviously he doesnt shop at the mall or name brand stores. He buys stuff from regular business people that set up shops on the side of the road and sell things alot cheaper.
 
That job for him is his freedom....Our ancestors came to America with the hopes of finding a job like that and then moving up.

What did you do, lift that quote from Heart of Darkness ...King Leopold? That kids ancestors have probably lived in the same village for generations. Could be that his countries ruler is a
dictator installled by an industrialized nation to siphon off their natural resources and pay the kid his .20 cents. His freedom?
Sure, he'd rather be doing that then ordering off the menu at
Cheesecake Factory but what he doesn't know won't hurt him.
