Good News: Iowa Doing Away with Child Labor Laws -
02-07-2023, 05:27 PM
We True Republicans™ have been impatient with our Republican Governor, who is also a Baptist, and Republican majorities in the Iowa House and Senate. They've had the horses to move our state forward but not much has happened. Until now.
A bill in Iowa doing away with several restrictions on children working in industry is on its way to the Governor's desk. This is what our State needs and as well as the entire United States.
Think of the opportunities to reduce labor costs. Kids will work months for just a new phone. They don't have the sense to complain about working conditions and businesses need to take advantage of this.
Current laws in the Western world were based on children working at dangerous jobs. I suppose careless kids lost fingers and hands. But they learned from that. Why not give current children the opportunity to learn?
There is nothing in the Bible against children working long hours at dangerous jobs.
The good and the bad of Iowa's bill that would bring big changes to child labor laws (yahoo.com)
Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

If The Lord did not intend for children to work, why did He give them such tiny fingers to do delicate tasks? And why did He make them small enough to fit into tight spaces like mines?
His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.

Sister, you have to have been there to know sometimes there's an itch in the kinds of tight spaces that only the tiny fingers of a child / happy-time Thai masseur can bring relief.

It's been known since forever, busy children are happy children.

According to history, child workers die younger than average so it's best if they start young so they can fit more years of work in.

This is great news! Next we need to end free elementary education. It's turning our kids into Communists like Joe Biden with their critical race theory, and, by imprisoning children for six hours or more per day, it's suppressing the kid's ability to sell their labor.

We're seeing good examples of happy children doing adult work. Just north of us in Minnesota, a business that cleans the blood and guts out of slaughterhouses has been hiring 13-15 year olds. The kids are having fun with fire hoses moving the slaughter material into piles and then scooping it into trucks. Isn't this better than reading comic books?

I got my first job when I was nine. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the floor. Child Labor laws are ruining this country.

When you think about it, what is the actual purpose of childhood if not to prepare for being an adult? Obviously, women couldn't give birth to grown people, so God designed starter humans to be more compact. The key point to focus on is that children are meant to grow, mature and provide service to The Lord and the community.
So, putting children to work is the natural method of teaching them how to be responsible adults, which is where their journey will lead them. Allowing children to squander their childhoods with play and frivolous activities will land them flat on their faces when it is time to take on the challenges of adulthood. It's practically child abuse.
