    Look at these happy children spending way more time playing with the Earth than what that dastardly Tim Walz would have them be doing. Learning? Yuck.

        Moria…You fear to go into those mines. The dwarves delved too greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the darkness of Khazad-dum…shadow and flame.

      Democrats just want a weak economy and weak career growth for their kids. If child miners were offered tax deferred retirement savings accounts, which they won’t be, and if they could afford to defer which of course they can’t, just think of the potential gains they could have over 3-4 decades until they collapse of pneumoniultramicroscopicsilicovolcanconeosis!?! They of course won’t live in a society that allows retirement so it’s just a mental exercise but man, fun to think about hypothetical gains for child laborers!
