Even if he has a good job in the rural areas perhaps making 400 a month, thats no where near what these girls can make a week. The standard of living is very low in some places, not only China but Guatamala ect.. The grandma I see collecting cans and bottles probably makes more that their kid in China. 20 cans is 1.00, couple hundred cans a day is better off than their somewhat educated family member back home can make. They send the money back home to their family who then can live like a king and queen.
