Because the existing workforce keeps getting deported.

Reduce minimum age for sex workers to twelve…
Don’t fucking give them ideas!
They are probably already jacking off to such ideas in the GOP.
I keep saying this is all a front to reduce age of consent. Once you establish teens are as capable as adult it goes down hill. Plus they cant vote.
How absolutely ghoulish
That’s fascism for you
Reminds me of when I was a dumb teen and had a bit of a Libertarian phase. Glad I grew up.
I had that bug in spite of being disabled. I read Atlas Shrugged.
It was an eye opener on just how incredibly selfish the whole ideology is. If even the THOUGHT of alturism is seen as something to be punished?
It really helped me that I read some history and thought about it for more than five minutes. Ayn Rand, she is like the idea of selling your house before it goes under the sea due to climate change, makes sense if you don’t add the real world context back into it. A conclusion can follow logically from its premise and assumptions, but that does not ensure the inputs were correct.
I like to ask Libertarians, when I bump into them, what happened between some date to a year of your choosing that prevented the market from developing its own solution.
I find it funny i say ‘atlas shrugged changed my view’ and there seems to be this misinterpretation that i’m in favor of its message.
I read the book… and was revolted by it. I saw it as the logical end point to the whole libertarian ideology. ‘Everyone exxists to be used, ssytems abused, and nothing matters but one’s own gratification and accumulation.’
Similar experience when you actually read the bible too.
Ayn rand died collecting Social Security and Medicaid benefits. Keep that in mind. The belief in conservative ism is an exercise in narcissistic projection. The most “staunch” conservatives are the worst offenders. Bullies, narcissists, sociopaths. It’s a pretty good indicator as to why anything they think or believe is absolute unrelenting bullshit.
While also collecting Medicaid benefits and Social Security
And they get a trial 90 license to fly a jetliner?
lol not even allowed a meal break. Can’t keep them healthy and energised for the job! 🤣
What a shithole America is becoming
America requires immigrants to function and has for almost 250 years.
Well, now we don’t. Just need a lot of young pregnant women giving us our next generation of labor au naturale
Well they need flock cameras and palantir drones over every neighborhood in the country to enforce their visions.
Freedom of assembly. In private. Is the only shovel to dig out.

Unfortunately, modern cars will track you even if you block the plate. They all have cell connections nowadays for things like firmware updates and manufacturer tracking. You should assume that every single thing you do in your car is recorded and sent straight back to the manufacturer. Car companies have shifted their priorities towards selling data, not just cars.
If you go to a rally, don’t drive, and don’t take public transit because they all have cameras in the cabins. Ride a bike, walk, use a motorcycle, or basically anything besides a car or public transport.

Yeah the flocks run on solar too
Why the hell would you want children working overnight on school nights?
Not just children. Anyone who isn’t rich, white, cis, straight, and Christian. If you’re not rich, then you must be a piece of shit, and you deserve nothing, not even the most basic human dignity (according to the 0.01%)
Why the hell would you want children working overnight
on school nights? FTFYSo they drop/fail out of school. An uneducated labor force is a cheap labor force.
An Uneducated Labor Force also ensure those laborers can’t compete for better positions, or demand better conditions.
However, they also result in the country slowly trending towards irrelevancy
In today’s economies, everything is about high skill labour. It really is just cutting off your nose to spite your face.
They’d rather be lords of the shit heap than citazens of anything better.
Capitalism has no long-term goal. It’s been literally making the planet inhabitable for humans since its birth.
Also they don’t get taught critical thinking skills to understand why things are the way they are and easier to manipulate. That said my understanding of the general US education system is that it doesn’t teach that (or much of it) anyways.
Easier to manipulate, yes.
The US education system isn’t monolithic. There are lots of good public education systems in the US. It wouldn’t be the tech and economic powerhouse it is today (was yesterday?) if it didn’t have generally good public education. Part of the reason some people think “the system” is bad is because their particular state/county/district/school is bad.
And a fantastic, “ask no questions” kind of military force
That is irrelevant because they are also removing schooling for the children that will be taking those jobs.
~Supposed to be read somewhat /s but also not really /s because that is the plan~
Haven’t you heard? The DOE is dead. No more pesky school to get in the way of these children’s productive hours! Ah, utopia at last.
the fine for truancy can range from $250 to as much as $500
local truancy officers who have the authority to arrest habitually truant youthsPrivate prison corpos have to get them some too
Imagine the kids get smart and start thinking on their own as adults. They would no longer vote Rep. Imagine that!
These kids already have jobs, they dont even need school. The ones with rich parents will still learn how to fuck everyone else over in their private schools, dont worry.
“Worst thing a fruit picker can learn is that they don’t have to be a fruit picker.” - Big Fruit
Even worse, that they’re the ones generating the money.
They already thought of that. The department of education has already been dismantled. If there are no school nights there’s no problem, right?
Florida does not care about education
It’ll cause them to drop out and become permanent cheap labor that can be exploited due to not having a highschool diploma.
So that only the children of rich parents can get a good education.
Florida is a land for the dying.
For OSHA violation-related teenage deaths
That’s funny if you think OSHA will exist soon
Many States have at-will employment, what the fuck are we even talking about? The US fight against workers has ever been brutal.
Wow. What the hell. None of that is acceptable.
Sadly, you need more opportunity to get away from your parents to stand a chance

Legoland used to have a sign “Turning minors into miners” at the toy mine exhibit.
Fun fact, if you have a photo it might be the only one out there
It would have been near this display iirc.
I can see Trump defending Dept. Of Labor and OSHA
I think you want “defunding”. (Probably spell check broke it.)
Spoiler alert: the children working will also be illegal migrants
That’s the best part, the 13th Amendment says slavery is fine if they’re convicted of a crime, and if they somehow make all immigration illegal…
That guaranteed meal break should be extended, not rolled back. After 4 hours every worker should have a 30 minute break to eat. It’s not just humane, it’s common sense that fed people work better. Even if you exclude the 30 minutes from their hours, which I bet was already what was going on.
You eat on your own time you lazy laborer!
The VAST majority of US states (last I checked it was ~40 states) have NO law requiring breaks of any kind for workers. (Sometimes exceptions for minors and medical reasons). And there isn’t a federal rule either.
Most employers do allow/require them, but with spotty enforcement.
It’s actually insane. And generally no limit on shift length either. They can make you work 36 hours no break and fire you for looking tired.
Yeah I was so confused when I saw they were rolling back the 16-17 year old meal breaks, I thought it was federal law requiring breaks every 4/5 hours.
But no, as seen here, few states actually have any legal protection - https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/state/meal-breaks#Texas
30 minute PAID break. The break lets them be more productive. The pay helps them be less stressed.
It’s good policy that helps the employers, even the ones too dumb to know it.
Florida sliding further backwards doesn’t surprise me at all.
But on a good note it looks like Florida’s Free Kill Law might finally be ending after 35 years of horrors to all the Floridians and tourists caught in it’s trap, no thanks to the Republicans though.
So thier reason for actually doing it per the article was to attract more MD to the state to cover the shortages, I don’t think that was the main problem for the shortages
Trabulsy noted that lawmakers passed the existing restriction in 1990 to reduce insurance rates.
“Lo and behold, insurance rates did not come down,” she said. “It’s about time that we change this law and put the courts back in the hands of Floridians.”
That’s something, anyway. I hope we stop falling for “we will lower your rates”, because we know they won’t.
Greedy fucks are never going to lower a price. They must extract all available profit or they have failed.
Americans: End abortion!
World: Oh, are you worried about what your gods might think?
Americans: Huh? Nope. I just needs that there little fucker flippin’ muh burgers. I aint 'spected ta do it muhself.
The US is regressing more and more. I refuse to call it a first world country at this point.
USA is a third world country with a Gucci belt.
With fake timbs
“First world” etc are political terms relating to Cold War allegiance.
What you mean is “developed country” and there are good arguments that the US has never fully fitted that label. You’d have people coming from “developing countries” to the US and realize that infrastructure and social security there is way worse than in their home country.
Yes but the “American Dream” was never that. It was always to get richer than everyone else and so I can just say fuck 'em to the plight of the rest. Or in alternative terms, it only concerns me when it actually directly affects me.
I believe the results of the last election and the ensuing “executive orders” actions are direct proof of that. Also it was proof of the large stupidity of the masses, something the Covid years exposed, but was directly proved in the election results. It was just a matter of time before a high level professional conman was so brazen about it.
Yeah, exactly. First world was allied with the US. Second world was allied with the soviets. Third world was basically everyone else, and was largely considered irrelevant to the Cold War. That’s why “third world” became a signifier of undeveloped countries; If a country wasn’t part of the Cold War, it was likely because they didn’t have enough developed resources or manpower to be considered a war asset. If they were developed enough to contribute, one of the two sides would have already been working on recruiting them to the war.
