Maybe a few 'Sweat Shops' will toughen you up Junior
Gradually more demented Iowa Senator Bullwinkle J. Moose Charles Grassley believes combating child obesity requires putting the little urchins to work.
But for him, the thought of reducing the use of corn syrup...not so much.

Grassley's a liberal piker. In the truly ideal society, by the time a child's old enough to be lowered into a coal mine or septic tank for cleaning, most should have been taken for warrior training to defend the state.....the corporations.
Grassley never mentions a "requirement" to put children to work. He is just pointing out that federal regulations are starting to step into an area best left to the parents to decide.
By the way, a child's parents can limit the use of corn syrup anytime they want. It doesn't require government intervention.
Really Anonymous? You want to hang your hat on "parents can opt out of letting their kids go to work?" Yes. That really worked out well at the turn of the century. We've been working hard to end the cycle of poverty where we can in this country since the halcyon days of the robber baron. That cycle starts when kids have to work instead of going to school.
Christ. Child labor. There really is no level you shit-heads won't stoop to, is there? 1860 or bust...

Sparta! Sparta! Sparta! Sparta!
Take it as a general rule: whenever the holy family farm is mentioned in a policy debate, it's a certainty that bullshit will follow.
Let them Eat Corn Syrup!
Nice hysteronics in the title, Scooter.
