Next step: to the jails and concentration camps for slave labor.

Good thing the north left a loophole in the constitution after the civil war just for a situation like this.

Also, anyone who wants to access government services. Want Medicaid? Work in the fields. Want Social Security? Work in the fields. Want Food Stamps? Work in the fields? Want Medicare? Work in the fields. Etc.

If you already have a couple of jobs, send your children to the fields. It's not like they're getting a useful education anyway. Most of it will be MAGA propaganda about how much better it is for kids to work in the fields instead of the classroom, because it keeps the evil foreigners out of our country.

Best decision I ever made

Governor Ron DeSantis said during a panel discussion in March: "Why do we say we need to import foreigners, even import them illegally, when, you know, teenagers used to work at these resorts, college students should be able to do this stuff? … What's wrong with expecting our young people to be working part-time now? I mean, that's how it used to be when I was growing up."

And a lot of things were different for your great-great-grandparents, and yet here you are not living as they did, you cheesedick dumbfuck.

Florida's what now?

Actually surprising that the Republicans didn't just push it through as they have a majority, but one can be happy about every news story like that

This bill is completely disgusting and exploitative. We’re talking about Florida, though, so I expected it to pass.

I want to shove bamboo under the fingernails of that asshole who was likening child labor to a “part time job”.
