Even at the going rate of about $10 hr. they can't even get enough migrant workers to do it.

That's odd. 20-30 million of these "workers" in the country and not enough of them to pull it off? Just how many pickers do we need to import?

I think I saw a few of them hanging out on the freeway the other day. Maybe he can check there.

The problem IMO is that they branched out into construction trades and easier jobs like restaurant work.

Some are just gang bangers selling drugs.

Those are the ones that need deporting.

The migrant workers that have been coming for years in the spring for field work, left in the fall and were never much of a problem.

Damn few people will do that field work, its back breaking.

The ones that stay in the winter find other easier jobs that pay as well or more, then they don't go back to field work.

Guest workers should only be seasonal workers in the fields.
