It's not about "offering" enough money it's about companies that are deliberately classifying employees as "managers" when they're anything but for the purposes of avoiding having to pay the employees overtime.

It's just semantics, you're not compelled to stay and work for someone who is low-balling you.

The people aren't compelled to let you to continue to peaceably do business in their country if you don't wish to follow their laws.

Employers can just fire people who falsify time sheets. Or take money from the register.

And they can have the employee prosecuted. Just let the inverse happen when employers steal from employees.

The classification fraud is a crime. It's also tax fraud because you're understating proper income partly to avoid paying taxes on it.

This is far from simply offering a low wage from the beginning.
