Youth labor laws

[Red Noob]

So I just caught up with the whole Gingrich and labor laws thing (didn't know about it until previously).

I partly agree with him. In all seriousness, I'm tired of schooling. I'm not the kind of guy that was meant for paper pushing, accounting, programming, or some other repetitive boring desk job. I want to work. I want to improve my work ethic. I want to get down and do something productive. I want to lay bricks or some shit like that. It's productive, and I like work.

I just don't think I should be prevented or forced to work. I want to work on my own accord.

So, what's wrong with lightening up on prevention and replacing it with protection?

Knowing Newt, he actually plans to replace all age 18+ workers with underage workers and pass a new law that those under 18 cannot be legally paid and must volunteer.

Drop out of school and get a job?

If child labor laws are repealed, I'm 99% sure that companies would take advantage of cheap young labor and America will have to go through another Gilded Age

Don't let capitalists play with fire, and they won't burn your country

Yes, we'll call it "community service."
