They have to abide by the federal standards. Oh okay.

There are no federal standards. What the goddamn fuck. Orphan crushing machine isn't supposed to be a literal label!

The parents do manual labor outside, die of heat stroke. Florida suddenly needs more workers (they got rid of all the immigrants) so they completely remove any remaining child labor laws. The previously orphaned children then die of heat stroke. Now you've got a machine that does the crushing and the creating!

Just to be clear…. We’re talking about the GOP?

Not some literal road construction machine?

Give the GOP time and it can be both!

I didn't see it listed anywhere, does this differentiate if they are paid or unpaid. Mandatory paid water breaks sounds like a good thing. Mandatory unpaid water breaks a bad thing.

There aren't any water breaks in Florida. Paid or unpaid.
