AOC Says Anti-Immigrant Republicans Would Prefer to Use Child Labor Than Illegals

Just recently, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez straightened us all out and said that illegal immigrants aren't "takers" — "they’re givers to the U.S. economy and essential to a sustainable future, especially if we want elder generations to age with dignity," she said. Democrats often argue that we need people to pick our vegetables and clean our hotel rooms.
 
Forbes reported last May that governors were turning to child labor due to a lack of workers:

Lawmakers in several states are embracing legislation to let children work in more hazardous occupations, longer hours on school nights and in expanded roles including serving alcohol in bars and restaurants as young as 14.

The efforts to significantly roll back labor rules are largely led by Republican lawmakers to address worker shortages and in some cases run afoul of federal regulations.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

In her District?  It is to laugh.

She will soon be of age to run for president. She is deranged but knows how to lie to get attention and votes.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Further evidence that a degree in economics is worth spit

They are bankrupting cities.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

She doesn't need to as long as her party controls the voting machines and vote count outside her district. **nononono*
