Because the existing workforce keeps getting deported.
I can see Trump defending Dept. Of Labor and OSHA
I think you want “defunding”. (Probably spell check broke it.)
Deport workers and fill their positions with literal children. That’s an insane proposition that will only hurt the vulnerable and favour those willing to use them…
That would be a great point if not for the “rabble rabble DEI! rabble rabble Bootstraps!”
Stupid lib!
What?
I think what they were getting at was that you made a good point, but unfortunately those in power use devicive rhetoric in order to keep us mad at each other instead of mad at them.
Ohhh that’s a bingo!
Guys who wrote this bill probably: “The children yearn for the mines.”
These will be a majority of white kids, right? Riiiight?
Ducking dystopia.
Oddly, it very well may be, considering that any “not white “people who show up to get job jobs will be deported just because they’re not white.
Or have a seemingly non-white last name.
And then they’ll adjust their definition of white.
True… Although this is Florida… I doubt they can deport every non white. They wouldn’t have enough white people to deport that many people /s
This is Florida… Why would any horrible thing they do surprise you?
These people want to “fuck” kids in every meaning of the word.
How absolutely ghoulish
That’s fascism for you
Reminds me of when I was a dumb teen and had a bit of a Libertarian phase. Glad I grew up.
I had that bug in spite of being disabled. I read Atlas Shrugged.
It was an eye opener on just how incredibly selfish the whole ideology is. If even the THOUGHT of alturism is seen as something to be punished?
Ayn rand died collecting Social Security and Medicaid benefits. Keep that in mind. The belief in conservative ism is an exercise in narcissistic projection. The most “staunch” conservatives are the worst offenders. Bullies, narcissists, sociopaths. It’s a pretty good indicator as to why anything they think or believe is absolute unrelenting bullshit.
It really helped me that I read some history and thought about it for more than five minutes. Ayn Rand, she is like the idea of selling your house before it goes under the sea due to climate change, makes sense if you don’t add the real world context back into it. A conclusion can follow logically from its premise and assumptions, but that does not ensure the inputs were correct.
I like to ask Libertarians, when I bump into them, what happened between some date to a year of your choosing that prevented the market from developing its own solution.
Why the hell would you want children working overnight on school nights?
So that only the children of rich patterns can get a good education.
“Worst thing a fruit picker can learn is that they don’t have to be a fruit picker.” - Big Fruit
Even worse, that they’re the ones generating the money.
So they drop/fail out of school. An uneducated labor force is a cheap labor force.
An Uneducated Labor Force also ensure those laborers can’t compete for better positions, or demand better conditions.
However, they also result in the country slowly trending towards irrelevancy
In today’s economies, everything is about high skill labour. It really is just cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Capitalism has no long-term goal. It’s been literally making the planet inhabitable for humans since its birth.
And a fantastic, “ask no questions” kind of military force
Also they don’t get taught critical thinking skills to understand why things are the way they are and easier to manipulate. That said my understanding of the general US education system is that it doesn’t teach that (or much of it) anyways.
Easier to manipulate, yes.
The US education system isn’t monolithic. There are lots of good public education systems in the US. It wouldn’t be the tech and economic powerhouse it is today (was yesterday?) if it didn’t have generally good public education. Part of the reason some people think “the system” is bad is because their particular state/county/district/school is bad.
That is irrelevant because they are also removing schooling for the children that will be taking those jobs.
~Supposed to be read somewhat /s but also not really /s because that is the plan~
the fine for truancy can range from $250 to as much as $500
local truancy officers who have the authority to arrest habitually truant youthsImagine the kids get smart and start thinking on their own as adults. They would no longer vote Rep. Imagine that!
Not just children. Anyone who isn’t rich, white, cis, straight, and Christian. If you’re not rich, then you must be a piece of shit, and you deserve nothing, not even the most basic human dignity (according to the 0.01%)
Why the hell would you want children working overnight
on school nights? FTFYFlorida does not care about education
It’ll cause them to drop out and become permanent cheap labor that can be exploited due to not having a highschool diploma.
That guaranteed meal break should be extended, not rolled back. After 4 hours every worker should have a 30 minute break to eat. It’s not just humane, it’s common sense that fed people work better. Even if you exclude the 30 minutes from their hours, which I bet was already what was going on.
30 minute PAID break. The break lets them be more productive. The pay helps them be less stressed.
It’s good policy that helps the employers, even the ones too dumb to know it.
How else are they going to teach those leeches how to fend for themselves?
I hope the sarcasm is obvious there.
In days past it may have been.
Now?
European here: WTF?
Please send help
No. You elected this shit on your own. Play stupid games - win stupid prizes.
That’s debatable considering rump has twice now stated on camera that the election was rigged in his favor.
That said, enjoy your popcorn while you can. This train is coming off the rails and may very well effect you personally in time.
WE didn’t elect them.
The south elected them, out of the same vile hate they’ve nurtured for 160 years.
When I was young they kept to their shit holes, but they’ve since leaked out and spread everywhere, and now the country is in ruins.
Of course you did!
The south came back in overtime to win the civil war.
The country is gone, save yourselves.
General Sherman’s biggest mistake was stopping the push before reaching the ocean.
This is what happens when your government loves business more than people. Do not feed the corporations. They will do this to you too.
Keep protesting American products please. It actually will help. If trump is losing the US money, he will be reigned in.
But will the reining in end the reign?
Did I do the wrong one? I still can’t tell, lol. Sorry grammar gurus, I’m not one of you.
Hi there! You did do the wrong one ;) reins refers to the item that is used to guide horses and the like, and so “reining something/someone in” is the correct term. Reign means to rule over.
It might help you remember which is which if you think of Santa’s REINdeer (deer wearing reins)! Hope that helps :)
I appreciate the help. I wonder if they’ll ever have grammar bots on lemmy.
Hello, I see you haven’t met government bailouts to big corporations 👋 Oh and it appears brand endorsements on White House lawn has just woken up from her nap.
Then you should remember the rise of fascism pretty clearly. That is “what the fuck”
Just a quick question: do people above the age of 17 not get guaranteed meal breaks?
To add to the previous comment, no.
Any benefits above slavery have been hard-fought, and hard-won for nearly a century. Hell, even the concept of a “weekend“ didn’t exist until union workers protested to the point where they demanded two days off every week.
Never forget: anything you have, anything you enjoy, anything that makes your life better… Thousands and, possibly, hundreds of thousands of people had to fight (and die) for decades before they even got a fraction of what we have now. And it’s always the fascist that wanna take it away.
And when they say “die” they mean in pitched gunfights, dark alleys, and other actual battles against criminals hired to break them. Not figuratively on a picket line.
No. Or any other kind of break. Also benefits are determined by part time vs full time, which itself is generally determined be working either less than 40 hours a week, or 40+. In other words part time is generally 39.99999 hours a week.
As a Californian, I also find this shocking. What the fuck, Florida?
You wouldn’t believe labour rights here in Germany. And yet, the work gets done.
Oh i would believe them. I’m a federal employee (for now), we’re considered to have “great benefits” that are actually less than the bare minimum in many first world countries; we also get less pay (at least in IT) compared to private sector to “justify” these benefits. The benefits they are constantly chipping away it while also taking more out of our paychecks each year with raises below actual cost of living and inflation.
In Canada the federal government ends up having to hire contractors for anything IT related because the pay is crap when on the inside, in the end it costs more than just increasing IT’s pay to be somewhat competitive
Yeah, but your social safety nets are strong, and rich people and companies are highly taxed in order to fund those social safety nets. That makes any random worker far more motivated to go and do their job than if they were getting absolutely ass-fucked in 1 trillion different ways every hour of every day, like they are in the United States — purely in the name of prophet –, all while the propaganda tries to convince them and everyone else that’s because they are “weak“.
I suddenly have no difficulty understanding why the red October revolutionist didn’t try to “rehabilitate” the imperials, and just murdered the fucking a lot of them.
Nope, rich people and companies do not pay German social security. It’s all funded by compulsory insurance for everyone except the rich.
I worked for a German company briefly. The pay was great and they literally wouldn’t let me do overtime. Best job I’ve ever had.
Come back! Germany will need loads of qualified workers in the coming years. There are 500 billion to be spent on infrastructure and the labor market is already quite tight. We will need people everywhere and in many places English-speaking colleagues are not a problem.
If y’all need more software/computer engineers with Quality German Humor, and whatever my ex qualifies as, (she don’t got no skills or education IDK if that’s a problem) I’ll gladly come on over.
(We’re a package deal because of my kid 😔)
I’ve got a Mexican coworker. She was terrified when she returned after her first sickday, fearing a profound scoulding by our consultant. She did get one - when she turned up sick a couple of weeks later :)
California does. Guaranteed 10 min break every two hours, and guaranteed 30 min unpaid lunch if you work over 6 hours, mandatory overtime after 10 hours, and a second 30 min meal break if working over 12 hours. Although, many bosses love to pretend those 10 minute breaks don’t exist (especially in construction).
Legoland theme park used to have a joke sign: “Turning minors into miners” at the toy mine exhibit.
Fun fact, if you have a photo it might be the only one out there
It would have been near this display iirc.
Read the fine print tho: “Due to lack of migrant workers.” What’s that again? Lack of migrants you say? Whatever could be causing that?
No no, you don’t understand, the free market sets wages! If the boss can’t find workers at the rate they set then they have to
raise wages…hire children!!🤮
I imagine this will work well with the school to prison pipeline.
