in reference to the video slam piece that was done...
Newt never said "Kids"...
He said "students"...
Newt never said anything about employeeing middle school or elementry school students either !!!
and
at 44 seconds into the clip...a cunt says
"i'm not sure that someone in middle school should be cleaning up after their classmates. Because what sort of message does that send to that child ?"
Newt never said in that clip anything about using middle school students for that job...
and god forbid that students be given a chance to learn responsibility at the high school level and earn some money....
what a bunch of bullshit....
"It is tragic what we do in the poorest neighborhoods, entrapping children in, first of all, in child laws, which are truly stupid," he said.
"I tried for years to have a very simple model," he continued. "Most of these schools ought to get rid of the unionized janitors, have one master janitor and pay local students to take care of the school. The kids would actually do work, they would have cash, they'd have pride in the schools, they'd begin the process of rising."
Unfortunately, you are incorrect. Newt was speaking specifically of repealing child labor laws preventing underage children from working so he could get them to work cleaning our schools, etc. I guess he doesn't think 14 is young enough to work...
