If you're concerned about a lack of jobs as you seem, then one such way to create a ton more jobs is by getting rid of the minimum wage. It's one of the primary factors that leads to job loss.
Those rules are out of date. They were right in 1950.

Today if the supply is filed by people in the Third World, what workers wages drives demand?

Look at Third World millionaires and billionaires for the answer.
