 @augieray hmm, let me think, what political party might she belong to? That's a tough one... 😂😂  @augieray Hmm. What about creating a safe workplace so they don't all die of COVID, leaving you with vacancies to fill with (undoccumented migrant) child labor? @augieray@mastodon.social what could possible go wrong letting unqualified teens serve alcohol drinks, operate industrial tools such as saws, etc??
