I really can’t think of a quippy response to this. The cruelty is flabbergasting. They’re actively campaigning for future generations to be worse off than they are.
I can’t get over the quote from the bills author when he says “Give me a break”. In my district in the last election there were 3 candidates running for the state Legislature and they all tried to out conservative eqch other.
First-term state Rep. Roger Wilder, R-Denham Springs, who sponsors the child labor measure and owns Smoothie King franchises across the Deep South, said people have been too critical of his bill. “The wording is ‘we’re here to harm children.’ Give me a break," he says. "These are young adults.”
This is the quote and it’s appalling.
People are LYING! We’re NOT trying to harm Children! We’re trying to harm Young Adults!
-That guy.
Forcing kids to work without Lunch Breaks, Water Breaks or any Labor protections is called PROTECTING THE CHILDREN!
