The concept is good but, I agree with lvoc.

All we have to do is cut off the aid we give them and we give them millions.

People are stupid. The media and Washington know this. Americans have been neutered and no longer have the ability to hold politicians responsible.

Because the politicians, with the help of an eager and compliant news media, have successfully pitted citizen against citizen, over partisan politics. Meanwhile, the politicians and their cronies get wealthy, and we the people suffer with a fifty year high poverty rate, and can't even be trusted to buy our own toilets and light bulbs, much less a health care insurance plan that we like.

The OP'ed trys to ask why the administration has not reported this as if it would help their agenda when in fact it would hurt the agenda of the Cons. Rabid hate for someone sometimes blinds one to the fact that they are operating against their own best interests, OICU.

Depends on what sort of job they work at, for we know they could work at side-show or carnival, kids of 10 could do that

We've had lots of the gardeners here with kids as young as 8 or so working with them during the day. Several times I've seen push-back--someone will stop and ask why the child isn't in school--but that probably isn't the rule.

Reports I've seen are that most of the "kids" are 14 to 18, so I'd expect they'd be taking the job that you'd hoped your own teenager would get.
