Rolling back protections against child labor - with a smiley face and kids standing there! Even at that age, the children are standing there stone-faced like, “We’re supposed to be happy about this…?”

Jesus weeps. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders just signed a measure loosening child labor protections in the state. The bill eliminates a requirement that the state verify the age of children under 16 before companies can hire them.

Free will is what matters. To forbid one to work because of his age is as wrong as to force another because of the same.

Can a state do this if federal laws address it?

How many kids under 16 work on family farms? Family run businesses? Work side Summer jobs for relatives & family friends? Hell- a kid may actually learn more today working a job than they do in most government schools

Getting a job at 12 was the best thing that happened to me. Glad my employer ignored governmemt laws. Wasting hours being forced in a classroom getting bullied is ok with you, but getting paid to actually learn not ok.

This is wonderful! There should be no age restriction in work. My first jobs were completely illegal, caddying at 12yrs old and a waiter at 16yrs old (you have to be 18+ in NJ). I learned so much about working directly for the customer and developed such a strong work ethic

Have to say I agree with you on this.

I never thought about my whole lifetime this would actually be happening in our country.

Nothing wrong with some hard work. In case you haven't noticed, most Americans are scared shitless of hard work. I support this.
