Although I don't believe that such expressions "legalization of slavery" are fortunate, I have to agree with Mrs. Toivonen that the Third Section of the bill violates the same purpose of a federal minimum wage, distorting it and creating arbitrary and unfair exceptions. Not to mention that it may reinforce irregularities, rather than the contrary, in the tax revenue.
Mr. Skoglu's proposal sounds to me relatively reasonable, and I don't think anyone would have issues about supporting that amendment to the bill. However, Third Section Article 2 remains too arbitrary and unpractical to my understanding. Therefore, I propose that bill is amended and such article removed from the final draft. That is my condition to support the bill, and I believe many colleages and members of the Assembly would agree with me. If that article remains, I am afraid I can not support this, probably well-intented, reform of the federal minimum wage.
