Where the demagoguery began.

Now we teach kids that it's illegal for them to work until they are grown ups, then when they are grownups they still think it's illegal for them to work.

Child labor laws weren’t for the benefit of the children or their families, they were enacted for the benefit of the unions.

This is caused by the lack of work ethic being instilled during their development age! You teach a teenager that work is good and that they EARNED that dollar through the loss of their personal time and the gift of their, they won't want the government to provide for them. They will want to provide for themselves for the rest of their lives! It is THAT individualistic mentality which is curse on our would-be Socialist/Communists leaders of the USSA!!

I thanked child labor laws the last time I saw a 300 lb 14 year old watching an illegal alien mow his family’s lawn.

Granted it isn’t a direct result but the mindset is.
