You know what's an immoral restriction? Keeping parents from making their own decisions about when their children should begin working. After all, childrenshouldn't be frozen out of the labor market just because of their age! There's a five-year-old down the block playing on a swingset RIGHT NOW that could instead be contributing to society by slapping some Big Macs together for 50 cents an hour.
Also, to many, job security is paramount. So why is slavery no longer an option? After all, slaves are provided basic food and shelter by their owners, whereas the minimum wage does not guarantee the ability to even afford those basics. To ensure complete freedom in our society, we need to curtail the excessive government interference in regulating slavery.
What would help Patterson is if he would be up front about what is going on and where he is living. He doesn't have to spill all the personal details, but he could issue a statement outlining things in broad strokes. Instead, he's slinking off to hide; that doesn't look good and it suggests wrongdoing on his part. If he doesn't want there to be rumors-- in the newspaper or elsewhere-- he should get out in front of this story. Also, releasing a small amount of information publicly would be the adult thing to do.
Well, Patterson does have an anger management problem. I've always voted for him because I agree with him on all the issues, but as a person? I wouldn't want him mad at me. I'm not surprised at the order of protection. I am surprised, though, that he has hidden his address. I mean, if he's afraid of his wife, he could take out an order of protection against her. Hiding his actual address is just kind of a needlessly shady move.
