    Absolutely. And the mine, factory and mill owners during the Gilded Age could have paid the kids' parents something resembling a livable wage, obviating the need to hire kids, and they would have been no worse for wear.

    The idea of “childhood” as we know it today is a very modern invention. Before, say, 200 years ago, they were just short adults who could work.

    Oh, this reminds me. The guy down the road from my house just put up another new Trump flag. This one says, "Take America Back" or some such thing. I'll report back when it first begins to fray.
