You come from wrong end with the 'misguided' assumption.

There is loads more people who fear loosing their job than entrepreneurial freelancers. There is load more minimal wage workers which would be abused.



I totally agree that a certain sector of workers needs more protection, not less. But if they really wanted to protect the working poor, they would stop labor leasing and raise the minimum wage. That this goes on as it is currently is outrageous.
