A Louisiana House committee voted Thursday to repeal a law requiring employers to give child workers lunch breaks and to cut unemployment benefits — part of a push by Republicans
Nothing like a good 12 hour shift at the Smoothie King to build character.
At this point I can’t tell if these guys are seeing how far they can push things or if they actually believe this kind of thing is good for their state. Both are stupid but neither would be surprising.
At this point, i partially believe they are pushing it to the point that enough sensible people will leave the state, making those states republican stongholds for the congress and electroral college
Many of them are just old and have cognitive dissonance about their own experience as a child. They simply believe that children today have the identical, fantasized experience they think they remember. Not only is what they remember untrue and most likely a collage of half-memories, stories from other people, and propaganda, but they have no incentive to scrutinize their decisions and beliefs because they’ve been in a comfortable insular community for most of their life that rewards them for thinking this way.
I say old but you don’t have to be that old to be brainwashed by a religious community and a comfortable job.
We just lost the democrat governor who has been blocking stupid bills like this for the last year. Our congress is revenge passing everything they can because the new republican governor blindly rubber stamps it all.
So yeah, a lot of these bills literally are just seeing what they can get away with.
They don’t care about anything but profit dude. Children can be employed with less pay and no benefits so of course they prefer to employ children, same reason they like illegals but can’t actually say anything to that effect.

They believe that putting limits on what businesses can do to abuse their employees keeps the employees from learning to be better.
Basically telling a bullied child that they’re on their own, and they need to learn to stand up for themselves.
Nevermind that comparatively, its like the bully is sitting in a panzer tank and perfectly willing to keep rolling forward no matter the obstacle.

There’s no opposition. Hell, everyone with oversight in Uvalde got reelected.
Why stop when you have absolute power?
