The workers get pay $4.20 after a 70 hour week
.30 cents a pound
He underpayed them.
If you pay $1.20 for two pounds of candy, how much would you pay for half a pound?
This is how my world history teacher put it: It was bad for land owners because land owners would have people work the land- like the peasants. The land owner would tell the workers how much pay they got for working. But because of the Black death, everyone was dying. So, when the land owners tried to hire someone, and they didn't like the pay, they could pretty much say that you could either pay them higher, or wait for the next guy- oops, the next guys dead. So the land owners ended up paying the workers who wanted more.
$8.25
3 pound
not a lot
It depends what job you are doing
Sharecropping was used to keep the land owner in wealth and have workers but still with little pay.
They use the money to pay workers, advertise the crisps, pay the delivery driver, buy land to put the factories on. The more land, the more they can make and more money they get.
the crop of cane can only be harvested by hand so the real question is can u afford the time to do it yourself or the money to pay workers and tools
