Newt wants to get rid of child labor laws, do you want a 10 year old working on your car?

Imagine a 10 year old doing an oil change. Yeah, thats not good.

I doubt than Gingrich meant that 10 year old children should work. We all know that Newt's kinda crazy. but I'm sure he meant older kids.

What he was trying to explain was that the union janitor in the school should be replaced and the students should be allowed to clean up the school for pay. I do not think for one moment he planed to remove the complete law. This is coming from a not a Newt fan.

I knew how to change oil at age ten. Funny, at age ten I could do something to actually earn money, unlike those spoiled bastards on Wall St. who were raised on TV and video games and think they are entitled to something.

His point is that our kids need to learn a thing or two about work ethic. Because when they don't, then you end up raising a bunch of clueless entitlement junkies like the OWSers

Are you so desperate you have to make things up?! You know that he doesn't want to get rid of child labor laws!

I could do about anything to a car at age 10. anytime my dad was working on one I was there to help and learn.

Dont speak too soon. Kids with responsible parents have a desire to learn things.
