Exactly.

Companies operating in the United States (like ALDI) are going to be subject to all the same labor laws as any other company operating in the United States.

(I believe ADLI is owned by the same parent company as Trader Joes.)

Labour laws in the US seem to boil down to "should have pulled yourself up by your bootstraps harder" .
