When I think about what a reasonable hourly wage is, I don't see it working in my country at all. My understanding is that the main portion of drivers in Copenhagen is made up of exchange students, who have to work some hours per week to qualify for student aid, so it makes sense for them because the state basically tops up their wages.

That actually sounds like an ideal system for providing opportunities to low-wage workers without locking them into low wages indefinitely
