Those who make the big money off their backs live in the gated communities. They don’t feel the consequences unless their limo is rear-ended or their next-door neighbor realizes how much money he can make renting out his McMansion to fifty illegals...

John Steinbeck wrote a book about it...

With all due respect, I believe the tortilla press unleashed it's wrath on far more than the fella's grapes.
