Note that Jesus used this very idea in the parable concerning the workers who agreed to work for a penny. It is completely legitimate to enter into an agreement with someone with a given set of conditions even if someone else can negotiate a better deal with you.

It is despicable when a person uses the Scripture to attempt to justify evil behavior.

I don't think the Scripture justifies cheating a person out of a living wage and then claiming it is alright because the employee allowed himself to be cheated.

still is going on...silver tongued serpents still exist to justify injustice and line their own pockets...I had a Uncle who became a millionaire off of illegals ...using them and claiming they were far superior than Americans.
The bottom line was ."they were cheap labor" it was just a convenient straw man to bash American workers so as to justify your sin and spin.

How evil it is to forget the blood of our soldiers who have died to make the world free and they come home to get a job only to get bashed and insulted by Scoot J calling American
workers bad.

Shame on You Scott J..and may your Llama spit on you.

THIS IS COMPROMISE AND NOT CHRISTLIKE AT ALL!

To be fair to ScottJ., he may have done the best he could have done in that situation. Maybe his company could have used leverage and threatened to boycott the temp service if they didn't pay higher wages to the Mexican workers. We need to remember the Golden Rule more often though "Do unto others as you would have them do unto to you."
