But who determines this value? The market does. If there are people WILLING to work at $5/hour, or HAVE to work at $5/hour, they will. If there is no one that will work at this rate, those looking for these workers will either file bankruptcy or have to raise wages.

Who determines the value of a Drupal developer at $x/hour? Supply and demand.
