    What’s bad is that even with the preponderance of historical evidence, there are still people who would absolutely return to these practices if the government let them. In many cases they do it anyway.

      Child immigrants have been dying in meat plants left and right lol.

      While they aren’t as young as this stunted 10 year old, there are absolutely kids crawling through little spaces for family business or shoveling cow shit all over.

      We’re already doing it in the US. Republicans are pushing to repeal child labor laws. At the same time, multiple meat suppliers have been found using migrant children (as young as 11 IIRC) in dangerous jobs in their factories. This is at the same time that the greedy fucks are hiking prices on your groceries.
