'They quit after a few hours': Farmers admit they can't find American workers

[americanwoman]

you ever spent 10+ hours in a field in 90* heat doing hard labor?

Yes, and if you are an American citizen, you have the right to breaks and all kinds of regulations to protect you. illegal immigrants don't.

Now, I am not saying to deport them all but there are some points about employers taking full advantage of not having to apply laws and regulations to illegal workers, including wages and safe conditions. Which is why I think it makes more sense to try and push immigration reform and allow a path to citizenship to workers, such as these farm workers. But that's a pipe dream and we all know it.

Oh My God, we are all going to starve because white people don't know how to pick strawberries!!

The end of the world is here.

They are plowing under tomatoes in Florida because they have no one to pick them, If you are stupid enough to think it is just strawberries, wait until you see the prices of fresh veggies in the next year if you can get them.
