On Thursday, Newt Gingrich reaffirmed previous comments that child labor laws are truly stupid. At a campaign event in Iowa, Gingrich explained that poor children need to learn how to earn money, rather than get it illegally.They have no habit of I do this and you give me cash-unless its illegal, Gingrich said, according to multiple reports of the event.
