Child Labor Laws Have Ruined this Country

I let the neighbor girls wash my car today. They came to my door with their little business proposal, and I said yes.

They didn't do a very good job, but it was only 5 bucks* and it's rare that one gets to enjoy both supporting child labor and paying someone less than minimum wage.


*I gave them $6, actually, so they could easily split it evenly between the three of them. So perhaps I did pay them minimum wage after all, if they worked for 15 minutes or less. I wasn't really keeping track.
