What's wrong with workers under 18? I had 3 different jobs before I turned 18. Unskilled factory labor seems like a great fit for the teenage crowd.
Hell, in the US, there isn't even a minimum age limit for farm labor[1], and the minimum age for non-farm labor is 14, with anybody over 16 being allowed to work unlimited/full-time hours[2].

A lot of people disagree with it and want to spend their money accordingly. Many of these issues are subjective, I fully agree that it often isn't black and white.
- sliverstorm 13y agoRight, so what you need is a slider. What's the cutoff age. 18? 16? 12? Of course, that's a distraction. I worked for the government when I was twelve, but I only worked an hour or two a week.
