If the CEO's weren't demanding so much pay, if the higher-ups in general weren't demanding so much pay (a maximum wage law based on percentages of the workers at that company would take care of this pretty quickly), if minimum wage was changed to a per county basis so that no matter where you live, minimum wage in your county will pay you enough to get your bare essentials (a crappy apartment and food), if more states did things like in Arizona so companies can't hire illegal workers anymore, and if outsourcing more than 10% of a company's workforce became illegal, I'm sure we'd have LOTS of jobs, also probably lots of crappy jobs, but at least people could have their bare essentials without having to receive government handouts to survive.
