Can you read the article first? There's a big difference between IT jobs and working in meatpacking or construction.

  Will the new law only allow underage workers to get meatpacking or construction jobs? If not, I find your comment pointless. Some adults work in meatpacking or construction and other adults in IT.

    These children would be working alongside adults in hazardous industries. Some adults have sex with people twice their age and others don't. Using your logic, we can now legalize child sex exploitation

    I find it hard to believe you are not being disingenuous but actually this clueless. Why do you think those jobs have trouble filling open positions? It's because employers don't want to pay higher wages to offset the unfavourable working conditions. Adults can see that's a bad deal, hence the labour shortage. Child labour law changes are meant to suppress wages by using children who either don't have enough diligence yet to realize this is a bad deal, or stuck in situations where saying no is not an option.
