I brought this up once to someone and she insisted that there are "work programs" for high schoolers to staff the restaurants during school hours.

All right Jonny here's your freshman year schedule. English, Algebra, Social Studies, then your next hour you catch the bus to a strip mall to serve hamburgers to office workers who think they're better than you, then biology, band practice...

In the south, they simply farm out prison inmates to work at fast food restaurants to pay off their restitution. That's whose probably working during the school hours-the people who can't get custody of their kids until they finish their jail sentence and pay off their $7,000 jaywalking fine first.

No, Ending so called 'Child Labor ' will not help families.
-Benny Shabino

Without her daily 18 her mother would not even be able to meet the interest payments on her latest surgery. The choice, then, that progressives and their liberal allies present is that either the mothers die or the children gain a strong work ethic. Of course the family haters on the key want to destroy the family. The kids not learning a skill is just a bonus.
...
Also, 12.5% of so called child labor is actually performed by dwarves and others people with small hands. Not that the woke scolds will tell you that. They're too busy saying "oh, they prefer to be called little people, not midgets"

I love that riots of that type are basically an argument from the Second Amendment:

If there's a tyranny going on and no useful recourse to prevent it, let's say when the government starts extra-judicially murdering people and keeps getting away with it, then go out, become ungovernable, and make it so that it costs everyone too much to keep doing. I suppose the idea with firearms is making it cost too much in bloodshed, except which government cares about blood cost? Hit them in the property they care about more than life.

They should be really down with that, the right wing.

The thing these idiots always miss is that one was a reaction to real things that happen(ed) and systematic problems with police while the other was a bunch of morons playing pretend 1776 dress up because their messiah said "nuh uh. I did too win the election" and just made poo poo up. He's still doing it.

People rising up against cops getting away with murder and violently violating people's rights without consequence created anger that people vented in sometimes violent ways. People rising up against completely false bullshit conjured by Donald Trump, Rudy Gulliani and Alex Jones in an effort to institute a theocratic fascist government while actually storming the US capitol building on top of it seems slightly different to me.

What they lean heavily on is the visual impact, and the bystanders who got affected.

So with the BLM riots they focus on the material destruction, fires, and the jobs and businesses negatively affected, which had nothing to do with the rioting or causes thereof. Jan 6 protestors didn't burn down the Capitol building unlike BLM/Antifa which tried to burn down a police station and courthouse.

Meanwhile with Jan 6 they love to reiterate that the government works for THEM, and any danger they felt was simultaneously well deserved but also pathetically over exaggerated "AOC wasn't even in the building yet look at her crying about being the victim!"

Yeah, that's RightWing Protesting 101 right there; When I support the cause, then it's a lawful and peaceful assembly of concerned citizens and any bad things that happened were caused by false flag crisis actors. If I don't support the cause, then the protest is unbridled anarchy and must needs be dealt with and it's probably just a bunch of people looking for an excuse to loot a new tv.

Babbitt is a false flag actor. She's a white woman and she looks like this other white woman. I've seen the pixels. Also I have this MJ12 balance sheet that says they have a trillion dollars for false flag events, but they keep having to use da same white woman in all events as a cost saving measure.

I've come to the realization that I'm woefully unqualified to research things outside a very narrow range of personal expertise.

I've got a good number of heuristics to sniff out an obvious scam, so I'm not helpless, but how the hell am I going to figure out which microwave I should buy? I actually know how those work on a theoretical level, but that's not going to help one bit when it comes to reliability and quality of cooking.

I can get some info out of reviews, but that only goes so far.

Ultimately, I decided to shell out for a subscription to Consumer Reports. All my friends and coworkers know I have it, so I get to be the go-to guy when someone needs a new fridge.

If I were to try and replicate their process, which honestly is probably lacking, I'd have to spend an absurd amount of money.

I guess to put it in simpler terms, people can't "do their own research" because they not only don't know how to do research, they don't even know what research is.

When my wife was pregnant she asked me (a biochemist) to walk her through some SDSes to check for reproductive toxins. After that I did the same for some other parents, and before I went into the details I'd basically do this little game

"Here is a SDS for something that is very flammable, which contains materials that can cause serious cancers, and even one that is shown to cause thousands upon thousands of deaths per year and has its own birth defect named after it.

It's a sharpie pen. The last thing was the ethanol used in the solvent. It's a all about volume and dose. Now bear that in mind as we go through this which says that it's acutely toxic *if you eat it*. Are you going to eat this?"

A bumper sticker I saw today: "Socialists TAKE, Capitalists CREATE".

And you know what? They're absolutely correct: socialists take capitalists' ill-gotten, hoarded fortunes and redistributes them for the benefit of everyone else. Capitalists, meanwhile, create poverty, homelessness, hunger, and worker exploitation.

So yeah....the bumper stick is pretty accurate; just not in the way the person probably intended.
