Hi here from all with a quick question and hope im not breaking any rules. Do you guys talk about anything other than America bad or are the america bad posts the only ones that make it to my all page?
(I'm not saying america isn't bad, just curious)
Now you know how it feels :)
I don't know what I know now but thanks!
Pretty much anybody who's a communists sees the US as a threat to humanity. So, why would it be surprising that the focus is on the horrors of the regime?
Rock on brother
Article is from last year, not that it changes anything
If I had to guess, my money would be on things only being worse now.
Now they'd be 11 year olds working until 2 a.m.
So?
-Republicans trying to Save The Children!
In all, the investigations led to $212,544 in civil money penalties against the employers.
About $700 per child labourer. Still cheaper than hiring an adult.
Child labour speeding tickets. Whoopsie!
they dont make these kids like they used, back in the 19th century kids didnt complain about their 18 hour workday smh
Last I checked this is illegal.
the police will be along shortly to throw the kids in jail
And/Or send them off to some oligarch pedophiles island.
Where they will be put to work, but "legally" this time!
Imagine if America legalized nationwide child and forced labor. This could reverse policies that were enacted by Abraham Lincoln.
Good. If adults don't want to work because they're lazy and on welfare then their kids will. The treats will flow and there's nothing the loony left can do about it 😤
The children yearn for the deep fryer.
They should be paid more.
that just gives franchise owners even more incentive to hire even younger children
Now I'm imagining "The Matrix" style grow tanks lining production lines where fetuses send signals to machines to do work because hiring 5 year olds to too expensive.
Or just find ways to replace workers with AI, which would probably be their first choice.
