Wow... I guess there was no farming industry before the influx of illegal aliens started in the early 70's. Who picked the fruit then?

Well, we kids did the job. I picked strawberries for months in the summer and liked the pay too! It was 5 cents a basket and all the berries we could eat. Kids of my generation were taught the value of labor very early and never failed to do the picking jobs when they were offered. Kids now would refuse to be that long away from the mall, even if you could pry their cell phones away from their ears.
