I disagree with your first statement - one need not be 'vulnerable' to be entitled to worker's rights.

My stance on minimum wage differs from yours, I suspect, and can be summed up quite simply - if you (as an employer) can't afford to pay the legal minimum wage, then you have a problem with your business model. You do society no favours by enabling slave wages simply because it allows more jobs to be available.
