Promising “extraordinarily radical proposals to fundamentally change the culture of poverty in America,” Newt Gingrich said Friday that he would fire school janitors and pay students to clean schools instead.
Speaking at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, the Republican presidential candidate and former speaker of the House challenged laws that prevent children from working certain jobs before their mid-teens.
Gingrich blames “the core policies of protecting unionization and bureaucratization" for “crippling” children.
“It is tragic what we do in the poorest neighborhoods, entrapping children in, first of all, in child laws, which are truly stupid,” he said.

A Newt is a kind of lizard.
Seriously, this person has no idea what janitors and maintenance workers actually do. Kids aren't gonna know how to fix the air conditioning systems or furnace system, or half the shit janitors do.
This really shows you what a snob this fool is though, what he thinks of the people who actually do work, like Janitors.
Janitors fix all the stuff that goes wrong in a school, light bulbs, clocks, they sweep the floors, fix the chairs, fix the machines. Only wicked lazy men think like this. Honest, hard working men who value real work, at least care enough to take note of what real work actually entails.
Work is hard, people who work in the government just don't understand what private sector jobs are actually like. Private sector jobs create the wealth that they live off of. So now these dummies instead of admitting they are a cancer, become hostile towards the private sector, start passing socialist legislation, and this can only lead to destruction of our society.
Seriously, school janitors are probably the hardest working people in the entire government, and that's why these people would target them. you gonna tell me a school teacher's job is harder than a janitors? Puhleeze. You gonna tell me Susy the english teacher has any fucking clue how the furnace ignition system works?
