A person looking objectively at the living conditions of these workers might say that their way of life was little better than slavery They were housed in substandard conditions, received wages far below the minimum, and had no medical or insurance benefits The migrant workers had no labour unions that could bargain for better wages, better hours, or improved working conditions They had no money and no power with which to bargain with their employers Employers were making fortunes by the sweat of their workers’ brows It took
