That Socialist Insecurity and Medicare/Medicaid happened outside the amendment process merely makes my point, not yours.Ad hom my foot...The notion of 6-year old chimney sweeps and elderly people living and dying in the streets in caricature straight out of a Dickens novel.A non-answer and ad hom. That's what ideologues who are blind to the negative consequences of their ideology do when faced with them.
Child labor laws, Social Security, and Medicare happened in the real world.
Ad hom my foot...The notion of 6-year old chimney sweeps and elderly people living and dying in the streets in caricature straight out of a Dickens novel.Nonsense.
You really need to stop getting your version of history from Dickens novels.
A non-answer and ad hom. That's what ideologues who are blind to the negative consequences of their ideology do when faced with them.
Speaking of two sides of the coin, have you ever heard surnames like Weaver, Miller, Miner, Baker, Sawyer, Cook, Brewer, and the like?Child Labor in U.S. History - The Child Labor Education Project

Forms of child labor, including indentured servitude and child slavery, have existed throughout American history. As industrialization moved workers from farms and home workshops into urban areas and factory work, children were often preferred, because factory owners viewed them as more manageable, cheaper, and less likely to strike. Growing opposition to child labor in the North caused many factories to move to the South. By 1900, states varied considerably in whether they had child labor standards and in their content and degree of enforcement. By then, American children worked in large numbers in mines, glass factories, textiles, agriculture, canneries, home industries, and as newsboys, messengers, bootblacks, and peddlers.

Except these things actually happened. William Blake wrote about kids as chimney sweeps decades before Dickens ever did. What Dickens wrote fiction, but this stuff did happen in the Victorian age and earlier.

Child labor laws?!?!?!?
Are the actual verifiable successes of the left so few and far between that y'all have to keep going back to that old chestnut?...I mean really?
Right....I've re-written the meaning and origin of common English surnames.There they are trying to rewrite history again.
This is why the right hates it when we spend tax dollars on education.
people learn the real history and their arguments fail.
Right. Because everyone knows that afterschool cartoons are "read."
Which is why they don't count.
If you look behind you there's a chance you still might be able to catch what I said before it totally escapes.

Turns out that a lot of that eeeeeevil child labor were offspring working the family trade.
Wow.....Just wow.That Socialist Insecurity and Medicare/Medicaid happened outside the amendment process merely makes my point, not yours.Child labor laws, Social Security, and Medicare happened in the real world.

Not really as I have been saying that the Amendment process went the way of the dodo long ago and is pretty much irrelevant now.
The reason child labor laws as brought up was because were were talking about child labor.
In the early decades of the twentieth century, the numbers of child laborers in the U.S. peaked. Child labor began to decline as the labor and reform movements grew and labor standards in general began improving, increasing the political power of working people and other social reformers to demand legislation regulating child labor. Union organizing and child labor reform were often intertwined, and common initiatives were conducted by organizations led by working women and middle class consumers, such as state Consumers Leagues and Working Womens Societies. These organizations generated the National Consumers League in 1899 and the National Child Labor Committee in 1904, which shared goals of challenging child labor, including through anti-sweatshop campaigns and labeling programs. The National Child Labor Committees work to end child labor was combined with efforts to provide free, compulsory education for all children, and culminated in the passage of the Fair Labor Standards Act in 1938, which set federal standards for child labor.

Yeah it was only families who worked their own kids.
rewriting history is no longer going to work for you people.

I'm saying that there are two sides to every story and that children often worked alongside their parents in the family trade.Speaking of two sides of the coin, have you ever heard surnames like Weaver, Miller, Miner, Baker, Sawyer, Cook, Brewer, and the like?
Turns out that a lot of that eeeeeevil child labor were offspring working the family trade.
Are you suggesting that child labor laws were unnecessary or that they did NOT address a significant problem in America?

Are you suggesting that there's only one side of any story of merit and worth paying attention to?
We don't like to spend money on education because we spend ridiculous amounts on it now, and people like TM are the result.
Not a good investment. We did a better job of educating when teachers had to stay with the parents of their students and students used little slateboards for their work.
