Z,
You sure about that? Who, exactly, is going to stop them?
Labor department, watchdog groups, current employees, former employees, lawyers who look for cases like these, etc. There are MANY people who are interested in going after corporations that blatantly violate labor laws.

Yeah, I get it, a lot of violations go unreported or slip under the radar, but that really is no excuse to advocate the kind of economy-killing policies you believe in. If laws aren't being enforced, they need to be enforced. You don't come up with more laws that will just as easily be bypassed by those "evil corporations."

"Who making 13 bucks an hour can afford the kind of labor lawyer it takes to take on an international corporation? Particularly when the upside is like a couple hundred bucks a month, at best?"

So your Dad was making maybe $15/hr before is pay was cut to $13/hr. BFD!
