Labor Laws Designed to Gut Farming Businesses
Federal rewrite of labor laws causing a flap down on the farm – Washington Times.
Already there are too many people who have NO IDEA where their food comes from. This has resulted in insane regulations of the farming industry. New work regulations coming from the Obama administration, which is apparently many generations removed from food production, will forbid kids under 16 from most kinds of farm labor.
This is another one of Obama’s direct attacks on the “filthy rich” SMALL BUSINESSES, which are the backbone of America, and the source of most of its jobs.
Small family farms most often rely on the labor of the local kids to function. These business operations are most specifically IN THE CROSSHAIRS of Obama. He and his supporters want those farms dead, and those families to starve. (Pharmer is taking this opportunity to redirect the political rhetoric to its rightful owners.)
Justification for these regulations is that rural kids are more likely to be injured or killed than their counterparts working in other jobs. This is also true of adult farmers too. Food production remains the most dangerous job occupation. This government has no real interest in assisting those who love the work enough to take the risk.
It’s worth a click to see some quotes from the Agricultural Sector regarding the idiotic regulations proposed by the Labor Department.
