Probably not. But if the kid makes a couple of bucks instead, he could afford to buy some shoes and something to eat.

Even better would be if the kid's parents made enough money so that he didn't have to pay for his own food at 8 years old.
And maybe even get to go to school (fancy that).
I think a large share (if not all) of the problems in this country are caused by corporations lining the pocket(s) of our public servants, whose constituents are too stupid to realize that's what's happening and vote them into office anyway.
Until this changes, our government will continue to prioritize the rights of corporations over the rights of the people.
