“Working Families Party 🐺 @WorkingFamilies”
"Duvan Tomas Perez, killed working in a poultry plant.
Michael Schuls, killed working at a logging company.
Will Hampton, killed working at a landfill.
This is why child labor laws exist. Companies can’t be allowed to turn to kids when adults refuse to work for poverty wages."
I think a guaranteed basic income for young people only would certainly make up for keeping them from working. Like you said, nobody having to work to live would be the ideal, but to ban people from being able to support themselves and doing nothing to make up the difference creates artificial dependence that keeps people in abusive situations with no recourse.
