Meanwhile, in Florida.

Republicans are letting people earn more money to combat inflation and rising costs of living, nothing wrong with that guys.

[Madeline]

Goalpost slowly moving. Soon 12-13 won't be children.

Gotta love the subtle bullshit.

[Anoat]

Adults are refusing to take shit minimum wage jobs so now they are resorting to kids that don’t know better and they can pay the absolute lowest legal minimum

[kuronosan]

Man if only there was something voters could do

[TsingTao]

In Florida, land of lazy old fucks complaining endlessly about no one wanting to work any more? They will vote for more of this.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

Gotta find labor from somewhere after they passed that anti-immigrant law.

Another great Carlin observation: "They want obedient workers."

They don't give a shit about school shootings, they're pro birth so they can brainwash a bunch of kids and morons into thinking working as a child is normal and you don't need to think or do anything else.

[Roranora]

working as a teenager ought be normal although certainly not working on roofs and operating power-driven equipment. i can't unsee a clip of an 18-year old worker falling through a roof and dying instantly (legally)

Paid article from USA Today so I ain’t gonna link it but Governor fuck face and his board of education have unanimously voted to dismantle DEI programs from all state colleges and universities, stating without a hint of irony that students should focus on learning the truth about our history without being indoctrinated by “woke” ideology.

[Melena]

Don't you know the only truth they want you to know is their alternative facts truth. Those damn uppity slaves learned real life lessons under the whip and they should be happy about it!

Disney’s federal lawsuit against DeSantis has been dismissed. The judge basically said yes DeSantis harmed Disney but because nothing was unconstitutional the suit’s argument on first amendment rights was invalid. I’m sure an appeal is coming. Disney’s lawsuit at the state level is still ongoing. A rare and shocking DeSantis victory.

Florida House and Senate have both passed a bill that would ban users under 16 from having social media accounts. Now it requires a DeSantis signature to pass in to law. DeSantis has said he supports the idea of the bill but doesn’t think it would hold up to legal challenges so he may actually veto it.

Can we just do a nationwide ban on everyone between the ages of 2 and 70 from having social media accounts?

Miami Beach is officially telling spring breakers DO NOT COME HERE and they are making life miserable for those that do including:

Massively increased police presence
Active license plate checking for outstanding warrants
Bag checks
Increased DUI checkpoints
Restricted beach access
Parking costs up to $100

This is all in response to massive criminal activity and property destruction last year

[Lokus]

I'm sure there has to be some sort of waver for the parking costs bit otherwise locals can get royally fucked as well.
