Why should they work for less? Mainly because a lot of them simply arn't worth what the law demands they are paid, hence they just don't get a job at all
As for people desperate for job, there may be some but there are a hell of a lot that do not want to work. A few years ago I interviewed someone and when I asked her why she had applied for the job she said, 'cos me mum said I had to'.
Employers should be able to pay what the employee is worth. Many small companies now avoid taking on employees and there is nothing being done to reverse this trend.
