Oh look, The Statist is pulling out all the stops to hurt a Republican. Nice to see nothing ever changes down there.

Nobody has enough fingers and toes to count the number of Liberal politician’s relatives on the public payroll. The difference is they are not making $8 an hour, but 6 figure yearly salaries. In places like Massachusetts, they could number in the hundreds. The reporter should take a look at the Massachusetts Probation Department, or the Judicial system, or the Mass Pike.

Dude, really? A part-time job in the gift shop at eight dollars an hour? I’m embarrassed for these guys. I’d be ashamed to go after a Democrat for this.

well the girl wouldn’t be making $8 an hour if the dems had not pushed raising minimum wage.

No, the dems want the Governor’s daughter to set a good example by sitting around and waiting for a handout instead of building a work ethic.

If this were a Democrat governor we’d get stories about how hard working the children are. That despite despite their mom being a powerful person, the daughter works for $8 per hour. What values they are instilling... Etc.

The media is corrupt!

Do the Democrats really want to go there? Claiming nepotism over an $8hr gift shop job of 20hours a week? Actually, I guess I can see their point. Most Democrat and union nepotism type jobs just put the person on the payroll with no work involved at all.

How dare this girl actually labor for her $160 a week!

Two words: Bobby Kennedy.

That said, it was stupid for Gov. Haley to let this happen. It's not exactly "Tea Party" values, is it? It's not even smart politics.

Doesn't matter how much the Dems practice it or voters do by electing sons and daughters of politicians.

I have no idea what she's doing at a gift shop retail job at 14, but that's SC for you. Her daughter should learn how difficult it is to get a job in this economy, you know LIKE THE REST OF US.

amazing.

Yet, the federal government giving condoms to 11 year olds is not even newsworthy

There is a double-standard, no doubt but that doesn't change the corruption of the people here defending the governor and her 14 yr old daughter in a state job, even part time for minimum wage.

Sorry, governor, but if you want to teach your daughter a work ethic, let her find work IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR.

There's a struggling adult or unconnected teenager trying to start life who could use that state job.

Now some will defend nepotism, why not just stay true to what is right.

Must be pretty bad. All I know about Rock Hill is the exit sign on I-77 I see every time I'm headed down that way on my way to the coast near Charleston. I usually pick up the Post & Courier.

I grew up just outside of Rock Hill and even as a kid in the 70s, I thought it was terrible and it hasn’t gotten any better with age.

No matter where the child got a job there would be complaints she only got it because her mother is the Governor.

Should my 14 year old have not taken a job this or last summer just because I know the owner? Or any other job she has had, that she got only because she was my daughter?

But it would be okay if she had a made up job at a hospital making six figures, like Michelle Obama had? That wasn’t even important enough to fill after she left?

The Rock Hill paper has a circulation of around 30,000 and it’s own website! :)

how petty!! - kids get these little summer jobs - all of my children had summer jobs; one of them in the plant in which I was a department manager (not my department). It gives them some work experience and provides the employer extra help during vacation season.
