A recent Florida Forestry Assn. news letter had connections to several notes about new rules and regulations  proposed by the Obama administration that have not been implemented, presumably because the public has complained about such would reduce the number of jobs. Proposed items to be changed included junk food at bake sales, toxic ask from coal fired power plants, fist that dis in power plant cooling water intakes, smog, Florida water pollution, and banning children from dangerous work on farms.

The farm child labor reminded me of when I spent all summer on Grandma's farm in Tennessee milking cows twice a day, pitching hay with a pitchfork, and chopping cotton, i.e. using a hoe to thin the cotton plants and killing weeds in the rows, the source of the saying "A long row to hoe". Field hand pay was $0.07 (sic) per hour.
