Okay, see what's ahppening here?
The so called good american patriotsd would like to roll back labor laws to what we had (read didn't have) in the 19th century.
I can't think of any reason we should not have revolution if these misanthropes get their way.
Seriously, the end game of Randianism leads to nothing but a class war that will NOT be fought in the halls of congress but rather in the streets of America.
Thousands losing their jobs to be replaces with people who can be paid less than minimum wage |: who'll be fired when they turn 20 or have been their 5 months and replaced with people who can be paid less than minimum wage. :|Can you tell me what it is about the proposed laws you take exception to?
We've got a couple of issues here.....
First off, YES child labor IS a State Level issue. It is NOT something that the Federal Government is granted power to regulate in the US Constitution, unless those kids are being shipped across state lines to work. Those who disagree with this stance, please show me a specific enumerated power in the US Constitution, granting the US Government the RIGHT to regulate child labor or removing that RIGHT from the States.
Additionally, while I'm not in favor of everything that is on that list of changes, I would be in favor of a good number of them. Especially in rural areas, farming communities, and areas where the current preference is for illegal immigrant workers. I'm also in favor of allowing Home Schooling families to modify their lesson plans and timing to allow kids to work during the regular business day, so long as their grades are kept up.
Nobody is going to be sending 8 year olds back into coal mines. So let's throw those stupid strawman arguements out the window right now. However, many families could use the extra income, it would help keep a lot of kids off the streets, make it easier for those who have dropped out of school to support themselves, and generally decrease the influence of the Federal Government in people's lives.... all things which I agree with whole-heartedly.

Wow. Stupidity at its finest.
Before you lefties start preaching morality....you must first separate yourselves from an ideology that was founded in and embraced eugenics. The ugly truth of left wing ideology...eugenics was....well, I'll let you do the research.

I see you don't understand the interstate commerce clause of the constitution. Labor, all labor, is a federal issue.
