Tomato ("vine") $2.99 lb.

True that. But not a valid comparison, we don't need enough tomatoes to drive us to work every day.

Forgive my exhaustion, I'm posting tired, not a good thing.

I do have a point, despite the comparison.

I understand that FR posts regarding illegal aliens will focus on the southern border because Freepers are from all places across America.

But I'm from Brooklyn, and NYC is my sustenance turf. I must admit that I admire the "gentle people of the Mexican persuasion" who snuck all the way here. They are unique in that they put up a noble fascade of cheerfulness in their work ethic. They are a weak target, and it is an immature stance to be held by anyone professing to be conservative.

I'm not defending them; illegals should be deported.

What bugs me is that on the other side of the coin, FReepers are ignoring all the other Tom, Dick, and Harrys from the rest of the planet who are here illegally, and taking REAL and SKILLED jobs from American citizens coming of age.

Down South, we'll always need migrant farm workers.

I have wanted to get my two cent's in, but I don't care to argue about it. Good Night.
