Ah yes. Gen Alpha, they yearn for the mines!

nobsforgma.bsky.social•4 days ago

Only for people of color!

This is one of the more disgusting moves by a disgusting State governor and his disgusting Legislature. I live in Florida and it's painful to watch!

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you're only "watching" the pain, you're in pretty good shape. I'm afraid you may -- sooner or later -- may actually feel the pain these greedy, hateful bastards are creating on the backs of their constituents.

Put magas in those jobs

jazzi715.bsky.social•3 days ago

They'd never do the work for the wages offered, but at the same time, don't want people in the country who'd do the work and be happy for the meager wages. When the price of corn pone increases, they'll realize what they've done. 😂

Republicans clearly read Oliver Twist (abridged of course) and felt that Oliver was a freeloading welfare sponger.

wynde.bsky.social•4 days ago

I guess the next hurricane they will send those kids to clean it all up for them.

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

It wouldn't surprise me in the least. In fact, they might close the schools and force the kids to work for a grade.

sandlee.bsky.social•4 days ago

Somebody has got to do it since they are doing away with FEMA 🤯🫣

notaspiring2bhmbl.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes. They want us back in chains.

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

Someone has to do the work if they remove the people doing it now.

Unfortunately the states that voted for Trump are going to see the most suffering. That’s why Trump keeps bringing up Joe Biden. What’s next is he going to start blaming O Bama?

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

Absolutely, and then Bill Clinton.

wings29.bsky.social•4 days ago

Save your children, LEAVE FLORIDA.

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

Wiser words were never typed in a Bluesky thread.😜

weneedlucretiamott.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yep—except it will be prisoners

klyps0.bsky.social•4 days ago

Are the supposed to pick crops after school in the dark?

jazzi715.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sounds like that would be permissible under the proposed bill, yes.

djhall8011.bsky.social•4 days ago

Duh! 🤬 You got it!

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thought so!

djhall8011.bsky.social•3 days ago

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

anaakama.bsky.social•4 days ago

So wait…. They don’t want immigrants, but they need their children for jobs?

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

Exactly! Someone has to do the work of rich white people.

mdywmn.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes it’s a prelude to slavery! My concern is they are disappearing people that disagree with them are they gonna force people into slavery? Like a debtors prison!

jazzi715.bsky.social•3 days ago

If I were in Florida, I think I'd be looking for places to move. They have lost their minds in the governor's mansion and the state legislature.

reneea.bsky.social•4 days ago

Well, the government has never shown any interest in protecting children, so I guess this isn't a surprise.

sandlee.bsky.social•4 days ago

They only want to protect them before birth, afterwards, they are on their own

The politically correct phrase is “separate but equal”. Fully constitutional again, just pending a scotus decision.

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'm old enough to remember the introduction of "separate but equal.' They can manage the 'separate' part. It's the 'equal' they can never get quite right (not that they actually put any effort into it).

covid-worrier.bsky.social•4 days ago

Right it’s classic double speak

imnotakittie.bsky.social•4 days ago

Imprisoned minorities …

maybe-stephanie.bsky.social•4 days ago

Kinda funny. Replace skilled workers for industries such as construction with kids who have little or no skills. Who would you want fixing your roof? What business would want kids instead of skilled workers?

aquarius0202.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes.

They are trying to bring back the Gilded Age.

It was pretty feudal back then, with only 2 classes - the rich & the poor. The poor had to work 18 hour days in unsafe conditions for shit pay & no benefits. We lived in company houses & shopped in company stores. They owned us.

geometricrazor.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you look in the deep south, corporate prisons have already started the 'slavery' you speak of. They say it's 'legal'... based on the 13th amendment... BUT the prisons are private entities, not government run. So... corporate prisons that house slaves....

superflux.bsky.social•4 days ago

Short answer is yes. They will use prisoners as slave labor until AI is ready. Probably within 5 yrs.

craneydolton.bsky.social•4 days ago

Explains why one of the -25 weasels was quoting pocket money hourly rates.

mizmiki65.bsky.social•4 days ago

how can there be a labour shortage when immigrants were stealing jobs? shouldn't there be vast numbers of qualified unemployed people now looking for work since illegals are being deported?

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

In theory.

scootchy1998.bsky.social•4 days ago

WTF!

cduquedamota.bsky.social•4 days ago

Wtf?

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's not even from an 'Onion' article. It's for real!

lake-chick.bsky.social•4 days ago

Florida has turned into a swamp of right- wing sychophants. Since Trumpf already lives there, perhaps all the magats should be forced to move to Florida. Make it a separate country, let him be KING and leave THE USA alone!!!!

fights4justice.bsky.social•4 days ago

They need to get FORCE their white male MAGA base to get off welfare, make them take the jobs that the immigrants they deported did. They were the ones who voted for mass immigrant deportation.

jazzi715.bsky.social•4 days ago

Or, maybe just leave innocent people alone and let them try to make a better life for themselves and their families.

fights4justice.bsky.social•4 days ago

We understand MAGA republicans are sociopaths, they don't care about anyone but themselves, even then, they have little respect for themselves.
Misery loves company. Many of these MAGA'TS are miserable people.
