Number9 Posted May 6, 2024 Report Share Posted May 6, 2024 https://finance.yahoo.com/news/15-worst-states-us-135101064.html 15 worst states to work in the US 15. Tennessee Recently, teenagers as young as 14 were found working in harsh conditions at a factory in Tennessee. The Labor Department's investigation at the Tuff Torq facility in Talbott revealed a disturbing case of child labor. Ten young immigrants were discovered working in unsafe environments. This highlights not only the exploitation of vulnerable immigrant groups but also the larger issue of inadequate labor regulation and enforcement, especially in states like Tennessee, which are known for their poor worker protections. *** The Republican run states dominate the list. They are the party of less taxes, more personal restrictions and less morality. The working/gullible magas. Who owns the businesses that violate the laws protecting Americans the most? The Rich. The magas have been voting R since the R stood against civil rights in the 1960's. Unable to understand civil rights are not just for black people. They vote against 'civilian' rights to their own detriment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

begooode Posted May 8, 2024 Report Share Posted May 8, 2024 crazy MTG pulled the trigger on vacating speaker Johnson, and the house pushed back. What a mess the gop is atm. With a historically low amount of substantive legislation passed and an echo chamber to protect them, there is just no incentive for many of them to focus on making the federal government work for the American people. The House on Wednesday overwhelmingly voted to protect Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) from a conservative coup, torpedoing an effort by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) to oust the GOP leader from the top job. The chamber voted 359-43-7 on a motion to table Greene’s motion to vacate, preventing the removal resolution from hitting the floor for a vote. nine 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
