A Reuters investigative report in July documented children, including a 12-year-old, working at a Hyundai-controlled metal stamping plant in rural Luverne, Alabama, called SMART Alabama, LLC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.yuck Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Yo that's wild. My initial reaction was some one high up at this parts plant probably set up this 3rd party staffing agency as a work around and to shield themselves from direct liability. This fits directly into a lot of reading and watching I've been doing lately on labor abuses and slavery. I was blown away when I discovered that there were still secret slaves in America up until the 1960s. Even though the practice of bringing new slaves into America was abolished in the early 1800s these mother fuckers were still sneaking new slaves in up until 1860; 10 years after slavery was abolished completely. Under the penalty of death, psychos are gonna psycho for dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
