Yes, and if we’re not careful some are taking us back in this same direction. Maybe not as far but certainly this direction. 15 yo kids in factories and taken advantage of while working too many hours in food service. Sleep? School work? Not their concern.
This doesn’t necessarily break a communist tenant either. From each according to his ability
Any unregulated system is rife for abuse…
Bad take, I see a real go-getter. Now, it is a race to see if the lungs give out before retirement.
Good thing we have lots and lots of regulations. We’ve added thousands of pages in the last few years.

Are we really going to claim that if we had unregulated capitalism children would be working in the coal mines?
And also the coal mine companies were actually committing crimes, it wasnt “unregulated capitalism”.
Back when a kid could put bread on the table like a real man. Not much bread, a fistful maybe
The reason why people become leftists is because the right fully endorses exploitation such as this
Left wants to improve lives of avg person, right wants to improve lives but only for themselves & cadre, at expense of others
I feel you bro
This is why they don’t teach the Guilded Age or progressive era that much in grade school. They don’t even really have that many books or documentaries on it except to glorify the robber Barron’s
The economy will be amazing when we get back here.
One day “economy” needs to become a word akin to “Nazi” in terms of how people think of it. Anyone who supports “the economy” is the most evil thing imaginable.
That is where we are headed! They want to get rid of the DOE, deport cheap labor, get rid of the minimum wage and child labor laws. Thanks so much Heritage foundation. Guess that’s the christian way?
