Opinion: Our failed immigration policy is causing a child labor epidemic in the U.S.

[DigitalDrifter]

Since Democrats are the ones wanting to flood the country with third-worlders, I guess they love that illegal child-labor.

Children are now mainstays in migration policy debates and news, with unaccompanied minors at the border drawing much attention over the past decade.

The systemic violence and poverty that displace thousands of children from Central and South America have a long history. While these factors have only worsened in recent years because of climate change, environmental degradation and the human and economic costs of COVID-19, they follow decades of destructive U.S. intervention in the region — and of our inability to reform our immigration system.

Families are desperate. Anyone that can earn a wage to try and keep up with Biden's inflation needs to work.

To capsulize, Democrats love illegal aliens, child exploitation and Palestinians but they dislike Jews and Blacks. I'm still trying to figure out why Jews and Blacks love Democrats. MAGA

Why Is the Republican Party Suddenly Weakening Child Labor Laws?

Rolling back restrictions on child labor and dismantling public education will make the country far more unequal. For today’s GOP, that’s a feature, not a bug.

Cool story bro.

Just one question: Were you trafficked into that line of employment, or did Mommy and Daddy have you fill out an application?

One of these things is not like the other.

If they can rob and trash a 7-11 they can work.
