It is so ridiculous to blame the people who come here, for paid work, rather than cut off the opportunities at the source.

Everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too, but this situation is truly absurd!

How many of you will be willing to make BELOW McDonalds salaries, to perform backbreaking work?

Think about it...
Actually this isn't true. There was a story on CNN (I think, but it may have been another news network) several months ago where they pointed out that they could triple rages for field workers and it would end up costing the average family about $50-$100 a year more in food costs.
