You are incorrect on your assumption that wealth ended child labor:

Also would recommend reading this book if you don’t understand what unregulated capitalism entails:

I will happily gift it for you if you provide me with your amazon info.

I agree that doing an hour of day of work is good for a child, but this is essentially education rather than productive activity for the economy.

As to who the judge should be, in a civilized and modern society we should aim to provide life, liberty and happiness to the best of our ability to all citizens. The state or federal government should create laws and regulations in order to achieve a society where we can all be productive to the economy. Great health care and education systems would be a great start for this country. Child labor would not be and would return if capitalism is further deregulated. Unregulated capitalism is only concerned with profit. The workers are just another commodity to be used up and discarded.

On thing is the legal framework and another is the means that make stuff possible.

Take the "war on drugs". There are very stringent laws forbidding drug use, how are we doing on that front? The place to win that "war" is not on the streets and the border crossings, it's the core of society, the family. You win that war at the dinner table, on the minor league baseball fields, at bedside telling goodnight stories. That's what's going to take to win that "war".

Child labor was necessary for the most part of history. What made it unnecessary? Tractors, enhanced seed, pesticides, washing machines, assembly lines, cars, vaccines, sewers, all the stuff product of brilliant minds operating in freedom and hard work, these people are the real heroes of western civilization. If we didn't have that, we would need children to work. And, believe me, no parent wants that.

We want the same thing, it's just that we have different visions. You concentrate it what is good and looks good whereas I focus in what does good. And my main focus is Freedom. No one, not the state or anything else, should stand between the voluntary interaction of two people.

I'd happily accept and read your book if you do the same with my book:
