Promising “extraordinarily radical proposals to fundamentally change the culture of poverty in America,” Newton Leroy Gingrich, aka “Stay Puffed” said recently that he’d fire all the school janitors and pay students to clean schools instead.

Speaking at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, the Republican Tea Party (GOTP) come from behind presidential candidate is challenging laws preventing children from working certain jobs before their mid-teens.

Newton’s blaming “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.

”I tried for years to have a very simple model,” he continued. “Most of these schools ought to get rid of the unionized janitors, have one master janitor and pay local students to take care of the school. The kids would actually do work, they would have cash, they’d have pride in the schools, they’d begin the process of rising.”

What sort of union does Stay Puffed imagine that school janitors belong to, the United Brotherhood of School Sanitation Workers United?

Newton is not a man of the people, he’s every bit as much a man of the wealthy classes in this country as Mittens Romney is. He wants to do away with child labor laws so companies can put kids to work for far less pay, and with no troublesome restrictions, this one will come back to haunt him and to bite him in the butt.
