John McCain infamously claimed that Americans would not pick lettuce for $50 per hour, and talk radio lines lit up from white Americans who said they gladly would pick lettuce for $50 per hour, if maybe only part time, some said.
McCain and Bush were from the elitist out of touch wing of the GOP that thinks recessions are necessary and good.

Besides, this last 100 million people isn’t about picking lettuce anyway, a farm harvest job doesn’t require adopting a second national language and workers and their families counted by the tens of millions.
