You are really reaching when you insist – incorrectly
Honestly nothing you said made any sense there. You expect me to believe buisnesses lobbied the state of Montana to make a law that is more strict than the federal law? Kind of a silly assumption.
If you can’t be bothered to educate yourself on what “interstate commerce” means in the federal legal sense, that’s fine by me because I’ve provided links for all of my assertions, unlike you: people can read them for themselves.
You can just admit you have no idea what interstate commerce is. The DoL defines that too, dig through your own sources a touch more.
I will concede I was mistaken on youth minimum wage. You got 1 out of 4 groups you identified correct. And before you bring up “students” that applies to students enrolled in a vocational program. Not someone that is a student working at another place of buisness. The other 2 you mentioned are not even mentioned by your own sources again.
But then you said
That is where you are flat out wrong. When it comes to minors and other special categories of workers, they can and do.
State law cannot supersede federal law. The federal law specifies that youths may be paid 4.25 and hour. I was mistaken there, but that has no impact on the Supremecy Clause of the constitution. A state cannot decide to set the wage for those employees lower than provided by federal law, which was the whole point anyway. I never should have allowed myself to get so far drawn off topic, but here we are.
in defense of such a shitty principle: not paying servers a living wage.
That’s complete fantasy and not something I said nor implied.
