Ahh well late to the party as usual ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not surprised to see crickets in the comments on this one. I mean really, what’s the bigger story here: the fact he admitted to that, or that he won’t face any repercussions? I’ll be happy to be proven wrong on that second part, though i don’t expect to see anything actually happen to him over this.
This is the kind of intellectual laziness i expect from maga chuds 🥂
Well that balances the damage lol
For all the analyses out there attempting to explain conservatism, that really seems to strike the nail squarely on the head.
Fake it till you make it! (งツ)ว
“it’s just another dollar, brah”
The cope is strong with this one lol
REGULATORS!!! Mount up! It was a clear black night…
I hope you made sure to tip them at least 20% for the convenience 🙃
They are responsible for so many shitty laws and actions that when they do something objectively good, there’s no escaping the feeling that there’s some ulterior motives ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ok, so who do i vote for this year?
I don’t understand why though 🤷♂️
I wonder if this is supposed to be an ‘open secret’ to get the magas in a tizzy
I still remember the GOP trying to dismantle the USPS while trump was in office. Even destroying perfectly good equipment! Guess they had a change of heart?!?
That’s not all, folks! 🐷 This shit runs deep, this is merely the tip of the iceberg. I just can’t wrap my head around children being brought into these places, trained, and then let loose–and no adult along that chain thinks to themselves that maybe there’s a problem with that?!?!?!
From the article:
One 14-year-old was severely injured while cleaning the drumstick packing line belt at the plant in Virginia, the investigation alleged.
The agreement stipulates that Fayette will hire a third-party consultant to monitor the company’s compliance with child labor laws for at least three years, as well as to facilitate trainings. The company must also establish a hotline for individuals to report concerns about child labor abuses.
The Labor Department’s latest statistics indicate the number of children being employed illegally in the U.S. has increased 88% since 2019.
This is all very performative, slap-on-the-wrist level punishment, and i imagine there are hundreds more children out there still working in shit conditions because nobody will say or do anything about it until more injuries/deaths force them to.
Cope a little harder, gringo
Interesting too how that “cost of doing business” is basically money they don’t receive as opposed to money they actually have to pay
Yeah, things have actually gotten quite a bit better over the past 3 years. Much of that was due to the abysmal performance of his predecessor, so even a “just ok” job would have looked like a masterwork.
That said, Biden’s def hitting his stride lately 😄
They are, but also they are ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
