Actually, this country was founded with the help of slavery, which didn't require any wages at all, and then sweatshop type laber which required very little in wages. Both of these things were supposedly necessary for the economy to function and both required significant bloodshed to be ended. As you may know, america seems to be doing fine without them. A number of american companies still take advantage of sweatshop labor, just not american sweatshop labor.
