The existence of child labor in India sure doesn't mean we are going to re-legalize it here in the United States. These examples you keep bringing up are non-sequiturs. They do not seem connected whatsoever to the discussion we are having.
Child labor laws are only one among many sorts of laws that have been passed in the States over the years. The reason I keep bringing these sorts of things up is because I am trying to figure out what the limit is on your acceptance of deregulation of the work force.

Most of what you are saying seems logical and largely unopposed by me, but a lot of people have gone to a lot of trouble over the years in this country to do away with abusive practices in business, and I am concerned, as are many people, that unfair labor practices that abound in other countries are being exported here rather than our own fair labor practices being exported abroad.

I almost hate to ask, but what is your opinion of organized labor, for example?
