    Huh?

    I just want to clarify... This means that just because a person happens to be younger than 18, an employer could leagally pay them less than the paltry $5.15/hr? Are you kidding me? I see abuse by bad employers written all over this.

    And THIS is how we plan to get more kids into college?

    I worked HARD during high school to have enough money to go to college along with scholarships. Some rich parent with a business that employees young people must have introduced this bill. Maybe that person owns McDonald's chains. So their child will go to college NO PROBLEM, while hard working young people from less fortunate families suffer. This may be good for business, but not good for working class families. The rich KNOW how to keep their tax money whild the poor and middle class tend to not know about as many tax deductions and end up paying a good percent of their money to the government. Not to mention this whole thing is age discrimination. This bill STINKS!

    Just what we need Rep. LaMar Lemmons. Less young people going to college!

    What are you thinking?
