    Anything to make money and ignore the humanity of "others", so sad and you know who is pushing this to take advantage of vulnerable people. "Florida-based conservative think tank called the Foundation for Government Accountability and its lobbying group, the Opportunity Solutions Project" The names of these groups are always lies to fool and deceive the unwitting.

    "Even when a child dies, these companies stay in business and continue on. I found one recent case where a 15-year-old fell from a 50-foot roof in Alabama. His employer paid a fine, but they're still operating and have just sort of continued on." Rest in peace, poor soul :frowning2:
