Woodrow Wilson
Wilson did one good thing in his first term (at least from
what I can tell); lower tariffs on foreign goods. This was done so it was
easier for poor people to get foreign things they need. Then he raised tariffs
on things that only wealthier people could buy. He also increased tax on the wealthy. Among
all laws that he passed, my least favorite is the child labor law. It made the
working age 14 and if you were working for over 8 hours you have to be 16.
Imagine you are trying to lift a house. The house weighs 40,000
pounds. You have a thousand people to help you each person has to lift 40 pounds.
200 of you helpers are under 21 they wouldn’t be much help anyway so you
dismiss them. Now everyone has to lift 50pounds. 300 hundred of your remaining
helper are female you don’t think they should lift that much so you dismiss
them too. Now you have to lift twice as much as you did before (80 pounds). Now
only 100 of your people can lift over 80 pounds so dismiss the other 400. Now
the 100 has to lift 400 pounds. My numbers are not accurate but you get the
point.

The Jones and a Possible Contest
Yesterday I got over 80 views on yesterdays post and one comment. Really? Anyways I'm considering holding a Lego/Brickarms contest. You would build a MOC that had to do with Navy SEALSs or Act of Valor. The prize would consist of Legos and Brickarms, possibly rare Brickarms. If you are interested in participating in contest comment and let me know.
Here are two of Indiana Jones's alter egos:
