Modern day Child labor. Republican family values. It is time for China to ban American products that are produced and manufactured by Child labor.

My older son is 15, he's working a couple of hours (around 12 ) a week in a restaurant, started at 14. Never pushed him to do so but he work with a bunch of friends and it's better than arguing with him to get his a** off the sofa in front of a screen.

I cannot see reasons for him to work to save the economy or the industry sector because of labor shortages. Factories or construction sites are way off limits for teens and I cannot see him work more than that. But for a kid to work at that age for their personnal reasons, I cannot say no.

I would like to applaud this woman for shattering gender stereotypes by proving that women can be school shooters, too.

No. Watch their actions, not the mouth

Wake me up when Australia leaves AUKUS and the QUAD

Reinstalled Tiktok to watch videos of people complaining about the Tiktok ban. Those are surprisingly insightful and well researched and I felt that I actually gained a couple of brain cells watching them.

Now do you see why the US establishment see it as such a threat and abomination? Good god loving American social media is only supposed to lower IQ and follow the party line to make it easier to rule the peasants.

When each week or days they have shooting because someone is pissed off (647 mass shootings in 2022), It will be quite scary to see thousand blowing their fuses together.

It will be quite a lot of fireworks if some kind civil war/unrest occur in the US....

I worked at my family business at age of 11. It isn't a big deal. But managing cash register or taking orders is not the same as working at construction sites or plants. Most of these new laws are solely aimed at getting kids to work legally in harsh environment because big corporations don't want to pay living wages to hire adults.

This is backfiring spectacularly. Millennials are the present, Gen Z is the future and they are alienating them all. The local sentiment on the streets is calm only because they've already systematically disenfranchised these 2 generations to the degree where half of them live with their parents with no other family, no spouse, no children, no savings...

Oh shit, as I typed that I realized, that makes them the perfect recruits. Easy to radicalize, can't run from mobilization, and if they get Kalibrated, there are no angry young sons or husbands, grieving wives, etc to deal with. They have no propety, nothing to their name, and if they don't come back, they don't come back. The key is, no angry young people who riot and trash things. Just some barely conscious olds who can be tossed some pain pills to forget.

Seems like year another scheme that is going to blow up in their faces again. The USA might not get the rebound they are hoping for. If all these disasters keep on happening and the USA does go down the path of civil war, many more nations will instead decouple from the USA and in fact will used this as a chance to get a good long view at the death of a nation…. The USA rather than Russia or China like they have been trying so hard yet are failing so incompetently. Besides, who would want to invest in the USA right anyways

That's fine, but we're getting articles about how kids/teens are working in places like a meat processing plant/factory, which they really shouldn't be working at.

Or even night shifts and other rather dangerous occupations lol.

I'm talking about the people, not the politicians or the government. The latter will be forever a US bitch. It's just funny to read that kind of article after Aussies were in full "Jai Australia, our high-tech beef, coal, wine & lobsters are irreplaceable" not so long ago.
