So your logic is, "some kids die and get hurt working, so no kids should work"?
Precisely. They should have a childhood.
Right now 14 year olds just look at phones and go on social media which is a direct harm. Working would be more healthy for their body and their mind.
we're exploited enough as is and corporate greed is only getting worse, there's absolutely zero need to put children in a position to be exploited.
If they dont want to be "exploited" then they shouldnt apply for the job.
What the fuck? You think employees should be exploited because they need money to survive? Force them to work 80-hour weeks for minimum wage? Scream racist epithets at them if they aren't productive enough? How about beat them with a metal rod if they step out of line?
I disagree with the "exploited" phrasing. And if someone is willing to work 80 hrs per week then they can make money doing other things.
I actually think they should be beaten with a wood broom handle. Quicker swings.
Ah, you're one of those "just get another job" people who think jobs grow on trees.
Yes on job trees.
Yes, getting caught in a large factory machine and being ground up and spat out into a puddle of mush would be much more healthy for their body and their mind.
