This idea has been brought up a couple of times in the news, ableit minuimumly. What if nations signed an agreement to not buy from countries that dont have a minimum wage of some amount, like 50 cents an hour. That way the worker is not working a 14 hour day and still starving. Plus it might give the workers more of a chance to get an education or something, or at a bare minimum more down time.

Minimum wage depends on the cost of living and the value of the currency.

While I agree we need to abolish the wage system, that is a long way off. Until then we must aply a "band-aid" to stop people from starving to death today.
