    So instead of having the rich and powerful abuse and assault immigrants they should abuse and assault children? Maybe on an island? Is there a list?

    I feel like anyone suggesting this has never interacted with a child.

    Perhaps surprisingly, most kids will happily pick fruit for say, 15 minutes.

    If you want them to do it for 40 hours a week that’s going to require some extreme motivation.

    What the fuck does he mean by “allow”. You think the kids want to work? Dear God, the kids want to be hanging out. Maybe playing some video games or going to the pool or shit like that.

    At least be honest. You want to jack up rent so high that their parents can’t afford to pay it so the parents make the kids chip in. That’s what you want, because you’re a sick motherfucker.

      Allow, as in let them work like they used to, with little to no regulation. It was never about kids wanting to work.

    His kids and grandkids first. In fact, if there aren’t enough necessary workers, maybe “news” hosts should be forced into labour.

    Funny how allowing the owner class to exploit children is phrased to imply it’s giving children a choice. 🤮

      This is Republicans soft launching “children yearn for the mines” rhetoric. USA is effectively regressing and removing what originally made this country “great.” I fear for my children as they grow older. I can only do so much as a parent to steer them onto a path of least hardship, but Republicans are increasingly making that difficult.

        I don’t think we started out great, honestly. Our history is pretty fucking dark. I think we could have been great, and we might have even been getting close. But I absolutely agree that the progress we have made is regressing in front of our eyes. Worse, anybody who doesn’t celebrate this senseless destruction is also being demonized.

      “If they’re old enough for sex, they’re old enough for work.” Republican logic.

      Also reminder that 100% of all Republican logic begins with a fallacy

        You might be mixing up idiots. I can’t find a prior occasion where this particular idiot embarrassed himself over this issue. I mean, he seems to embarrass himself regularly, but not on this issue that I could find. On the other hand, DeSantis did it earlier this year.

        During a recent immigration-focused discussion with President Donald Trump’s border czar Tom Homan at the New College of Florida in Sarasota, DeSantis offered up the idea of teens filling the gaps left by undocumented workers.

        “They said, ‘Oh, you know, you’re not going to be able to hire people’ or whatever,” DeSantis said. “What’s wrong with expecting, like, our young people to be working part time now? I mean, like, that’s how it used to be when I was growing up.”

    Kids can be easily tricked by shitty supervisors to do dangerous jobs because they’re not old enough to know any better. Adults are usually smart enough to see the danger in working with machines that can crush and shred you. Or with chemicals that will poison you.

    Parents who offer up their kids to these businesses because they “trust them to keep their kids safe” deserve to be kicked in the groin repeatedly.

      Yeah, he really does. Earlier this year he was waxing philosophic about how showers are terrible for you and how being on a farm means you never have to bathe.

      HURT: They are. I take showers if I’m going to be around people. But this is why you live on a farm. You live on a farm, you don’t have to take showers.

        Five-year-old Nicki really wishes her staunchly Republican family had been exposed to this deep wisdom when she grew up on a farm.

        Bathing was my least favorite thing at that point in time, yet I was still expected to do it daily.

    @Redditsux At what point do liberals realize Fox News is how conservative psychopaths float ideas? This one is beyond the pale. If conservatives had brains, they would realize the wealthy are trying to recreate slavery through inadequate education, low wages, and limited opportunities to move to better places to work. On top of that, they seem really fond of raping our kids, if the defense of Trump is any indication. Conservatives are the main problem.

      The problem is, we all know what the most effective solution to ever-growing “conservative” (reactionary) terror is, but nobody wants to say it (i.e., it’s how our forebears handled the Nazis and the Confederates).

      Nobody wants to go there, though, because that’s a bell that cannot be unrung. And, let’s face it, it’s horrible. So neolibs, actual conservatives, and left-of-center moderates are quietly clinging to the faint hope that the rubes at large will get gobsmacked by good sense and then vote themselves out of this mess soon. I want that, too, but I’m not so optimistic.

      It’s always been about slavery for this subset of the population, right from the very beginning of the formation of the country. Not just money, not just power in an abstract sense, but the kind of power that only comes with slavery.

      The fascism is only a means to slavery. They’ll take it as far as they’re allowed.

    Again, the people suggesting this should go first and work those field jobs that they thought immigrants were just “going around stealing”. I’ll paraphrase what the American farmers have said so far, “Americans are the laziest workers and quit the same day.” These asswipes just want another daycare with free labor because public schools are on the chopping block.
