It was not until 1938 that Congress finally passed a child labor law (Fair Labor Standards Act, or FLSA) that would later be upheld by the Court. So like yeah, get them little doggies to work.

Don’t worry about that, the UK government is selling the NHS piece by piece to the private sector. Healthcare staff are striking, 100s of people are dying due to shortages each weak and they want to charge for GP and A&E visits now. Conservatives are very good at selling us out to the rich here too!

The final form of capitalism is feudalism with royals in the shadows... Not so easy for a French revolution this way

As severely opposed to maga as I am I have no idea what you’re taking about. Did you read somewhere that maga is pushing for child labor?

Are children cleaning drag queens in secret top office maga meetings?
