William Blake's The Chimney Sweeper (1789) entered the chat
When my mother died I was very young,
And my father sold me while yet my tongue
Could scarcely cry " 'weep! 'weep! 'weep! 'weep!"
So your chimneys I sweep & in soot I sleep.
onion right? right? turning the debate on "free meals to school kids" to "should we feed kids working in the mines". Nice progression M'URICAH
Florida sliding further backwards doesn't surprise me at all.
But on a good note it looks like Florida's Free Kill Law might finally be ending after 35 years of horrors to all the Floridians and tourists caught in it's trap, no thanks to the Republicans though.
Read the fine print tho: "Due to lack of migrant workers." What's that again? Lack of migrants you say? Whatever could be causing that?

Reason #8,994 why I left FL. My tax dollars no longer contribute to this shit.

"Wage slaves" is the only answer I've found that fits the available information. Some of them are being misled by others, but some must understand the impacts of what they're asking for.
How else are they going to teach those leeches how to fend for themselves?
I hope the sarcasm is obvious there.
This is some Avengers level bullshit.
Some people think that education might be important for the jobs of the future. Qualifying for university is an option on such a future.
Other people think fuck the future, we need more people taking a career path that starts as a dishwasher right now.
Very few of these other people will question "what was wrong with the dishwasher we had?"
These people want to "fuck" kids in every meaning of the word.
