Child Labor Wrongs
I don’t agree with child labor at all. I think that child labor was too dangerous. The owners should not have been using children. I also think they should’ve stood up to the owners a long time before they actually did. There were way too many injuries and deaths. The kids worked too long and too hard for such little pays. The bosses were way too strict when it came down to the kids coming in 1-2 minutes late. They should’ve given the kids days off and sick days. The reason why there were so many injuries and deaths were because the bosses were too strict on the kids and only cared about the business doing well instead of wondering if the kids were okay.credit: www.eiu.edu
Interview with Pappaw
Judicial Branch
If I was in one of the branches, I would want to be in the Judicial Branch. One reason why is because I could pick how long I wanted to serve. Another reason why is because I would be able to share my opinion to others without them interrupting. Also I could argue with statements without being disrespectful. I would also have some power to make people follow the Constitution in court. I would also be able to treat innocent people fair without argument. I would be able to look through laws to see which ones stuck with the Constitution. I would be able to pass fair and legal laws according to the Constitution.
