Because the existing workforce keeps getting deported.

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.

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.

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 since its birth.
And a fantastic, “ask no questions” kind of military force
Imagine the kids get smart and start thinking on their own as adults. They would no longer vote Rep. Imagine that!
They already thought of that. The department of education has already been dismantled. If there are no school nights there’s no problem, right?
Why the hell would you want children working overnight
on school nights? FTFYThat 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~
Haven’t you heard? The DOE is dead. No more pesky school to get in the way of these children’s productive hours! Ah, utopia at last.
the fine for truancy can range from $250 to as much as $500
local truancy officers who have the authority to arrest habitually truant youthsPrivate prison corpos have to get them some too
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%)

Even worse, that they’re the ones generating the money.
Florida 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.
So they gonna get the right to vote? Cause if they are going to be treated as adult they should get vote.
Let’s also decrease liquor and smokes to 8 while we are at it.
Also remove child support cause they are grown up to get their own jobs and health insurance.
/s
f these people.
Health insurance? You think these kids are getting health insurance???

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.
While also collecting Medicaid benefits and Social Security
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.
I find it funny i say ‘atlas shrugged changed my view’ and there seems to be this misinterpretation that i’m in favor of its message.
I read the book… and was revolted by it. I saw it as the logical end point to the whole libertarian ideology. ‘Everyone exxists to be used, ssytems abused, and nothing matters but one’s own gratification and accumulation.’
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?
Guys who wrote this bill probably: “The children yearn for the mines.”
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.
You eat on your own time you lazy laborer!
The VAST majority of US states (last I checked it was ~40 states) have NO law requiring breaks of any kind for workers. (Sometimes exceptions for minors and medical reasons). And there isn’t a federal rule either.
Most employers do allow/require them, but with spotty enforcement.
It’s actually insane. And generally no limit on shift length either. They can make you work 36 hours no break and fire you for looking tired.
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.
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.
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?
Or have a seemingly non-white last name.
And then they’ll adjust their definition of white.

If they’re removing these protections for teens what are they doing to the rights of adult employees?
Florida infamously removed water break regulations. In a state the military regularly suspends training due to the heat index. I’m starting to get the idea that these aren’t good people.
Employees in Florida (and most states, like ~40 states) have no laws that require breaks. Many states do/did require that minors get them though
Truth. I grew up in Florida I always had breaks (first job was at age 16 at a pet store and I had LOTS of jobs after that) and was shocked when a friend of mine was working a fast food joint, in management, and had no lunch break. I told him he should sue and then we saw the law. Guess all my other employers were just cool or something. (I mean, they weren’t paid breaks—my friend was not even given the time in his schedule for breaks).
That’s food service. I live in a state that technically requires a paid 10 every 4 hours but my employer makes it so that affirming that you took all your required breaks is part of your clock-out procedure. To answer ‘no’ you have to find a manager at the end of your shift to swipe their card and verify that you did not receive your mandated breaks. Then it goes into a report that makes them look bad. You can imagine how they react when you start consistently telling on their negligence. I don’t know anyone who works there who tells the truth all the time.
I tried for a while, and it got me chewed out for not taking my breaks (as if I control the pace at which my tables are sat, or as if I can schedule a breaker on a weeknight). So I started taking breaks at the end of my shift, after my tables were gone but before I finished my side work, and suddenly I spent too much time in the break room.
All workers should have a guaranteed meal break on any shift that takes up 6 hours or more of their day, commute included. The economy is supposed to work for us, not exploit us.
These people want to “fuck” kids in every meaning of the word.
