209 child labor laws and not minimum wage laws...   .· 253..I would add anti-trust laws, progressive estate tax and restoring the traditional tariffs.

I wouldn't -- this is where our values differ.   Those are laws that increase government taxes and power.  I value limiting government protection to those with an absolute need-- the children.

How do you define the "absolute need" and how do you determine where it applies?

I think that you are like the ones who promote homosexuality while condemning bestiality or incest. The line is arbitrary and is moving on downward slope. What appears unacceptable today will be a norm tomorrow as we move away from God.
