1ºI mean if you’ve ever read up on wage theft or surplus labor values, axiomatically, employers already start from a point of exploitation, Erich. Duh. Ultimately, in our current set up, being employed at a place is submitting to an authoritarian system. These kids aren’t the ones setting their hours, not with the jobs they’re getting.
The only ‘freedom’ that saying kids can work longer offers anyone, is allowing more avenues for these employers to exploit. That’s been my point from jump. If there were a protection in the bill that allows them to tell their employers no without being penalized, then we could talk about maybe.
2ºI like how you confidently came in here as a proponent & only now, after originally saying ‘character building’ or whatever hours ago as if people are saying ‘No Jobs!,’ actually present a reason to finally strip protections AND YET feel the desperate need to condescend, Erich lmao
You’re the slow one, my guy. You’re still laboring under the delusion the kids will be able to set their own hours. Maybe you’ve never worked a day in your life, but that’s not how jobs work, sport. How can you have this huffy response towards me having a say but not the employers that will inevitably take advantage of these kids, who are going to be lowest positions at the place.
I get you dorks have this silly idea that capitalism always ‘works’ or whatever but more hours doesn’t necessary mean more money. Are you familiar with just how massive the wage theft problem is in this country, beardo?
3ºBryn Stephens you are really using your brain cells today....lol.... A record number of people from California also switched out their residency to Florida. 3,059 last month. A new record. There’s more. Washington, Oregon and Pennsylvania — all set new records for Florida driver’s license applications as their residents moved to Florida. In total for the month of August, there’s been 321,881 out-of-state license trade requests in 2022.And now the data. In August 5,838 New Yorkers switched their licenses to Florida. That’s the most we’ve ever had in one month. Ever. For the year that’s 41,885 New Yorkers who have switched their license over to Florida ones. But it’s not just New Yorkers. And there is so much more a brain your size could hardly comprehend....lol
4ºA simple point, a lot of people want to speak over the parents, and speak for someone else’s child. One can talk about the achievements of the Progressive Era, but find that perspectives and misdirection has erased everything. It is very simple to reestablish the success and achievements of the Progressive Era. Reason and purpose is better than any perspectives that changes something that turns something into failure. Many places the Social Safety Net has completely collapsed. Children working and paying taxes explains that Liberals lie, there is no such thing as free. The people worrying about another state, address your own problems first, be faultless before saying anything else about someone else.
5ºMauricio Lezcano again, we’re back to your “opinion” or “feeling”. No business or government in the US can force anyone to work. Kids far younger than this have worked many hours daily…every day, on farms and ranches around the country without pay. Mind your business. These young people will have work ethic and understand the US doesn’t have respect for the dependent. Independence is the fundamental responsibility that goes with the fundamental right of liberty. Independence as a nation and independence as an individual. Money is the means of independence. The more economically independent, the more fully one can exercise their rights and the US will respect them. Dependence is not respected on the U.S. and these young people have work ethic and are earning. Good for them
6ºMike Em you should look to Florida has a beacon of hope....There’s no state income tax in Florida. There’s no other state quite like Florida when it comes to cultural diversity. Throughout the state, you’ll find people of every age, religion and background imaginable, making it one of the greatest melting pots in the country. Housing is affordable. Florida has one of the nation’s largest GDPs (gross domestic products). In fact, the state’s GDP equals roughly that of the entire country of Mexico. And so much more. What people are shaking their heads are idiots like you that do not have a clue what they are talking about...
7ºThe house is burning down, no not my house, not your house, but OUR house and our country is that house. Some people see a room in that house that they don't like, so they decide to burn down that room, then another group burns down another room, the next thing you know not only are those rooms burning, but the whole house (our country) is burning down because of some people who didn't like a particular room even though they loved the house as a whole. They are willing to burn the whole house down just to get rid of that one room. That is what is being allowed to happen to our country one law at a time, one right at a time. Even though not everyone hates all the rooms in the house.
8ºWOW, that was fast. Signing this rollback, plus all the intentionally bigoted education bans signed by Kim Reynolds has ALREADY directly caused Biden's poll numbers to go down even MORE.
The american electorate are more and more and more fervently angry at the things they are told Biden is doing, and have further severe belief in him being the cause of everything that increases inflation, personally reducing the workforce, and policies already to blame for the recession we're not in.
Bidens' presidency has convinced them more solidly each day that working children, with no point of all the years of child labor laws in the first place, and further education bans that lead to the christian goal of an america finally rid of as many lgbt and transgender americans as humanly possible, and a regimented education allowing parents unfettered, to teach kids that being gay, having two dads, and being transgender - is subhuman and must be treated as disgusting - are positions we NEED in the next president.
Desantis and Trump are the only choices to do what Kim Reynolds has done to make Iowans stratospherically happy, and are the only ones able to make these laws staunchly FEDERAL. The more they push for these things, and the more they promise to pardon those convicted for Jan. 6th, the lower Biden's poll numbers will go.
The more laws like what Kim Reynolds proudly signed that pass with landslide votes, the more americans will hate the idea of Biden as president, vetoing even a molecule of it, and the more his poll numbers will continue to sink drastically. Right until election day, with cheering that america is "great" "again".
