Factories and Mills

There are  multiple factories and mills functioning in this area. I am going to explore the near by Satanic Mill. Numerous factory and mill owners are operating without government regulation, and to often cut corners with safety and health conditions in pursuit of greater profits. Long working hours in stannous and life threatening conditions were usually undertaken by woman or children as they are cheaper to employ. Children are hauled into the working world with little chance for an education or for a life outside the factories or mills. Children are the most desired workers as they are small enough to fit under and around the new machinery, they were the cheapest to employ and they families were grateful for the extra income in these tough times. Children as young as four are employed to work long hours from before sunrise to well after dusk, with one, half and hour break at the most at dinner time. As I enter the mill it has an overriding sink of human breath and sweat. The mills is absolutely packed, people are nearly shoulder to shoulder. The heat is agonizing, it is like a hot, heavy beast sitting of your lungs, it is so hard to breath. Children are rushing around completing tasks given to them. To my left I see a child, only five maybe, climbing into a machine to collect fluff court in the machine. This machine could start up at any time, with this child in it, by the end would be a mere smear on the inside of this massive machine. The safety conditions are of something of a myth in this factory. There are many deaths in these factories and mills due to the lack of safety conditions, but to the owners its just time to get another child of the street and train him or her to do the simple job that the one before had, they nothing more than a worker, a link in the great chain to getting the employer a greater profit
