Summary

To get some hand labor out here I tell you I would love it. Let me tell you what hand labor pays. The going rate is $10 a bushel. A bushel is two 5-gallon buckets, slam full. A person can easily pick 20 bushel in one day, taking breaks, drinking water, go sit in the shade, go town, get you a sandwich, come back. I thought immigrants were taking all the jobs. Now, you told us that they were stealing the American jobs. You threw them out. And now you're standing in a field wondering why we don't want to come pick your crops. Baby, post that job on the MAGA board. We're hiring! We're hiring! We're hiring! Because apparently, those were the folks who had the biggest problem with the immigrants doing this work. Go ahead. Go get 'em. But don't spend years demonizing the very people keeping your farms running. Remove them, and then look around confused when nobody shows up. Actions have consequences. Enjoy the harvest.
