Sadly, there are states here in the USA where their governors and their senates are trying to repeal safety laws for both adults and children, and repeal child labor laws so children as young as 10 can be forced to work in factories again.

Yup. I have read about that. It won't end well, I'm sure.

Anti-union? Sure. Let's go all the way back to the "good old days" where labor disputes resulted in the workers burning down the boss' house and beating him to a pulp!

Except those workers will be labeled the "Bad Guys" for wanting safe working conditions.

In the USA, heartbreakingly, it's 100% true. If workers fight tooth and nail to regain safe working conditions, they're vilified. 😢
