There's something about the push to loosen/end child labor protections that is bothering me beyond WHAT THE HELL KIDS SHOULDN'T BE WORKING WE'VE ALREADY DONE THIS AND IT WAS BEYOND TERRIBLE
It's like, the manufactured consent machine is working overtime on this one? After Arkansas passed their law making it easier to hire teens to work IN MEAT PROCESSING PLANTS, white Boomers came out of the woodwork to wax nostalgic about their fucking paper routes and public pool life-guarding jobs and whatever part time fuckshit they did for pocket change.
And there's opinion pieces in major publications like, "working builds character for teens!" framing it like we're talking about babysitting or mowing the neighbor's lawn AND NOT DANGEROUS INDUSTRIAL FACTORY WORK
I'm not linking to Reason because fuck them, but please note that that opinion comes after the news about Chick-fil-A illegal hiring children and paying workers in food.
I hate this, I hate this, I hate this. Everyone's trying to make it look like we (the WHAT THE FUCK KIDS SHOULDN'T WORK people) are out of our minds for opposing these changes to child labor laws, because look! This is about teens having a part time job on the weekends, something easy and normal, just ignore what these laws actually say, no one's going to use them like that!
And it feels very sudden, you know? Like, two months ago it wasn't even on my radar and now suddenly everyone is talking about how great it is that teens can plug the worker shortage.
I dunno, man. We've plunged even further down into our cyberpunk dystopia and I feel like everyone's trying to convince me that I'm not seeing what I am absolutely seeing.

The fundamental lie of Libertarianism
“Libertarianism” says Robert W. Poole (Reason Magazine’s early editor) is “about more than just economics and politics, it really is. It’s about human flourishing and what are the conditions for human beings to have satisfying, flourishing [lives].” Money is power. Robert Poole, the voice of Libertarianism The fundamental philosophy of Libertarians is that power should be with the people, not…

I’ve been reading a lot more Reason articles recently and I notice they sometimes get pissy about the Mises caucus in their writing. It’s funny but, also sad as well since they do some good work still.

Swedish historian Johan Norberg is author of The Capitalist Manifesto: Why the Global Free Market Will Save the World, which caught the eye of Elon Musk, who tweeted, "This book is an excellent explanation of why capitalism is not just successful, but morally right."
Norberg wrote the book to combat a growing belief on the right and the left that libertarian values of individual autonomy, property rights, limited government, and free enterprise are failing to raise living standards and need to be ditched in favor of more centralized power and control over virtually all aspects of our lives.
A senior fellow at the Cato Institute, Norberg shows that life is actually getting better for all of us—especially the world's poor—and that economic globalization, political liberalization, and cultural freedom are the main drivers of that improvement. He talks about how liberals and conservatives get the past wrong, why he's not worried about China's supposedly unstoppable economic growth, and why the cases for free trade, free expression, and more immigration need to be constantly updated and renewed. He also explains why he's a libertarian and not an anarchist. Reason's Nick Gillespie spoke to Norberg in Washington, D.C., in late September.
