>> I suppose it would be good for the company to pay these folks $1 an hour, but for our society not so much.

No, it wouldn't, because they wouldn't be able to get employees for that. But it would be better for both the company and society to pay market rates. The employer benefits because he's paying a fair price for labor. Society would benefit because low-skilled people would be more apt to get jobs, which eventually leads them into better-paying jobs.
