Jane Raybauld, a Democrat, pushed for this because her family owns grocery stores that employ minors. She’s a piece of shit.
I guess the GOP wants to fuck the teens in more ways than one
Work is work, age shouldn’t have a damn thing to do with wages.
Voting Republican has consequences.
If you think your kids hated you before, let’s see how they like you now.
Meanwhile, when I was a teen I had to pay bills and rent, and I was paid MUCH MORE than kids are today (inflation).
But fuck teens, right? Oh, and you’re drafted womp womp
As a teenager, this would have motivated me to do crime. You aren’t going to pay fairly? I’m going to make money unfairly. Anyone who pays under minimum wage would get retribution. Also, kids should band together and not work at these places. And rob them.
Hell yeah. Nice to here some of your generation being sick of this shit.
I’m 38.lol
Lol no wonder. Read it wrong. I’ve done community activism in my city and the young people don’t seem to have that bite in them. Guess I just got happy for a second.

What the fuck
You see, teens aren’t people. They’re animals owned by their parents. So some of the money goes to animal care costs.
Children working for low wages: truly a show of a thriving state and a Great America /s
Cant vote but can be worked to death for poverty wages - just one more form of legal slavery
Like I said in another thread, this has been the case in the Netherlands for at least since the eighties (€4,32 an hour if you’re 15, still below €10 if you’re 19) . And employers abuse the shit out of it, hiring young people as cheap labour and trying to get rid of them before they turn 21.
Wtf, only 30% of the minimum wage for being 15? What exactly is the company supposed to do with the other 70% to justify that?
The justification once was that young people couldn’t get a job if someone more experienced would get the same pay.
More MAGA winning. This is exactly what MAGA wants to do on a national level.
that’s bad, my state only follows federal minimum wage, so that’s $7.25 for everybody
Meanwhile, the additional costs spared and their consequences for livehood:
If you’re a normal/poor person: scraping by -> can’t even live paycheck to paycheck anymore
If you’re somewhat affluent: okay -> scraping by
If you’re a billionnaire: excellent -> excellent (nothing changes)
To be part of the 1%, in the United States you’ll need about $USD 6 million. Though living off from money only (i.e. without wage labour) is already “achievable” by $2 million, you then make about $100k a year with a 5% interest if in stocks.
All ye who are not part of the 1%, are the proletariat. Ye who depend on the oligarch have nothing to lose, but a world to gain.
You could almost say we have nothing to lose but our chains.
US being US
conservative is to be backwards
One state isn’t other 49. Don’t lump the backwards with the rest of us.
Who’s your president, again?
Gregory Bananas
Imagine how many of them are parents themselves, just fuck over 2 generations at once.
Now implement price controls.
