Newt Gingrich, Speaking at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, the Republican
presidential candidate and former speaker of the House challenged laws that
prevent children from working certain jobs before their mid-teens.
Gingrich blames “the core policies of protecting unionization and
bureaucratization" for “crippling” children.
“It is tragic what we do in the poorest neighborhoods, entrapping children
in, first of all, in child laws, which are truly stupid,” he said.
”I tried for years to have a very simple model,” he continued. “Most of these
schools ought to get rid of the unionized janitors, have one master janitor and
pay local students to take care of the school. The kids would actually do work,
they would have cash, they’d have pride in the schools, they’d begin the process
of rising.”
