Section 41-10-21 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article. The Legislature hereby makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to be as follows: In recent years changes have taken place in the economy of this state which have had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens.
