Let ALL of it rot until the growers are willing to pay a wage that Americans can afford to work for. It is called the law of supply and demand... as long as we are playing lawfully. If you want to turn your head and pretend that only *certain* laws apply... well, you'll get what you ask for. The big fact that gets left out of this equation is that illegals receive about 5-7 times what an American would receive in wage benefits (not counting taking the extra value of their Social Security and Social Welfare out of the hands of American families) considering what they make and expect to take or send back home with exchange rates being what they are. There is absolutely NO incentive for an increase in the minimum wage as long as there is an unlimited supply of manpower willing to live like refugees and accept the bare minimum wage. If you want to consider yourself a Liberal Democrat and refuse to support the American worker.... you are neither. -- Grady-White Gulfstream, out of Southport, NC. http://myworkshop.idleplay.net/ ----------------- www.Newsgroup-Binaries.com - *Completion*Retention*Speed* Access your favorite newsgroups from home or on the road ----------------- If they pay a higher wage, either their profits are gone, or the price of goods goes up to the consumer so much that they won't buy, and again, there goes the profits. That's how business operates, regardless of the products. |
