Please don't mistake what I've said as being for illegal migrant workers, i'm not. All I can speak for is the attitudes of the teens & labor force here and they won't get out there and pick tobacco & bale straw in 100 degree temperatures all day long.

Interesting, for example, in Los Angeles there isn't any fields or straw bailing anywhere in sight, yet there are millions of illegals there.........

No I understand what you're saying, but the market is flexible enough so that if a business can't find American workers to pay at a decent wage, they fold and get into something else. What's happening now is corporate welfare at our expense.
