Will he get tough with Mexico and when do I get my $50 per hour lettuce picking job?

Lettuce pickers should be paid $50 an hour. I have to pay $513 a ton for fertilizer this year. Two years ago it was $160. I get the same price for my award winning potatoes that I got 25 years ago. You want high food prices? Wait until the farmers UNIONIZE. Then you’re talking a Depression. Unfortunately, the farmers won’t do it because of our compassion.
P.S. Do you want to bend over in 110 degree heat all day and pick lettuce and then bitch because you have to pay $1.69 per head ( or fag bag )
