Mike, your message is exactly what is wrong with the contracts. You are focusing on, “screw them! lets get what we want and force them to work for minimal pay!”.

Would you have liked a large company to buy out whomever your parents (or guardians) worked for, and then pay them unfair wages just because they could have?
