I mean, that's not necessarily bad, right? 80% people think that it would be better for them if someone worked in a factory and 25% think it would be better if they personally worked in a factory. So, if the 25% get a chance to work in a factory, they're satisfied and the 80% is satisfied as well.
You could also think that the country would be better off with people working manufacturing instead of gig jobs like Uber or minimum wage at restaurants since manufacturing in the US typically meant unions and better pay.
Not in modern day USA. I mean there are people working to re-legalise child labour.
That's true, but we can still push for higher wages to attract people to those jobs instead of allowing companies to twist labor like they are.
Are we going to? Probably not, but I can see the point of view someone who believes it might hold.
