I'm a farmer. I've tried to hire "American" with varied success. Seems that some Americans would rather live on the Gov dole than do a difficult and dirty job. And I'm tired about hearing about a living wage - as a farmer I can only pray to have something left over after I pay expenses. Sometimes I do better than others but there are NO guarantees in agriculture.
If you believe that we should only hire American, try to get this passed. Limit time spent on welfare to 6 mos. 6 mos is long enough to pack up and move out of the inner city to places that have actual jobs. I understand they prefer not to move but this country was founded by immigrants that packed up and moved to where the work was instead of whining about how they are misunderstood and discriminated against. It is exactly what the Hispanic (and South African) workers are doing today.
