"Have we time-traveled back a century"

"...when child labor was wildly prevalent? That's what I first thought when I heard that a food sanitation company was being sued for illegally employing more than 100 children ages 13 to 17. The teens cleaned razor-sharp saws with caustic chemicals while working overnight shifts at 13 meat processing facilities in eight states, including Arkansas, Colorado, Indiana, Minnesota, Nebraska, Tennessee and Texas."
