| Message | Mr Speaker. we got not word for this bill this is pure INSANITY, to allow child workers. And yet, we are certain that Mr.Dangerfield will never send his own child to work in a mine. This is capitalism, as it seem the only values that are pormoted by liberty, is what we can do with money. to be free to buy thing and to accumulate the most money possible, that's the freedom for the liberty caucus. We demand the congress to block this bill. As there is no reason to weaken workers rights, there is no reason to allow unregulated child labour, there is no reason to not let employer and union negociate the salary cap and there is no to unregulated the working hours.
