Yea going to go ahead and assume they aren't going to pay those 14 year olds what anybody would even put in the same discussion as a living wage.
This will just make sure these kids never advance past what should have been a summer job for a couple years.
This is like if you asked somebody to come up with a way to increase generational poverty as much as possible, especially if it's only for "corporate farms"
Yeah they're going to feel it in a decade when all those kids are in their mid 20s and they haven't reached their full education potential and then people wonder why there's a shortage of rural medical workers. Some big disaster rolls through and the wafer-thin margins will get shredded and the disaster response will compound on the original disaster and create a royally fucked situation for all kinds of folk. See: Texas during the winter storm a couple years ago. "Where are all the linemen?" They're baling alfalfa you dipshits.
