In order to compete with Mexico, China, and many other Asian countries we must repeal the minimum wage and child labor laws now. American corporations are fleeing this country in increasing numbers because of unfair wage and insurance demands by unions and employee groups.

American corporations are needlessly suffering because third world countries are able to pay pennies an hour for labor while American corporations are forced to pay minimum wage. while it is not a living wage, it is still far above the wages corporations pay employees in many other countries. We can not compete. Lower class Mexicans by the millions come to America and are willing to work for substandard wages, why should our lower class citizens be any different ?
Children around the world work long hours in sweat shops while our laws require our children to go to school. Other countries don't have these laws. Corporations in America can't compete and wisely move their offices and manufacturing plants to these countries to take advantage of these "corporate friendly" laws that permit this. In order to compete our laws must be changed or all our corporations will move abroad. They have no incentive to stay here.
Why should children of our poor be exempt from long work hours and low wages. Their parents are generally uneducated, unskilled, and statistics have shown that children of these parents will probably be the same way.
Therefore, their children are wasting their time and our money in school. They should be put to work to help our corporations combat foreign cheap labor. This way we can get rid of a few Illegal Mexicans and help our economy at the same time.
School is a luxury that only the upper class should enjoy. They earn most of the money and have therefore earned the right, and can afford, to educate their children. Statistics have shown that children of these parents will be the future heads of corporations and our next political leaders. Isn't this what America is all about?
As a country, we need to get our priorities straight...
