These slaves live in flop houses like three or four here in our housing track with 20 people to a room. They are truly being exploited by people like you and no it is not "hyperbole". They do it precisely so they can send their momma or poppa or wife and kids every cent they can, and per capita it is a small stipend. Meanwhile along with these poor souls we also are welcoming in those who will not 'settle' for your less than generous wage, they choose to earn their living through crime. Factor this ill-gotten gain in with the drug and coyote money and then you get to the $20 bill.
As for child labor, why would you be against that? Don't you realize that there are a lot of 11 to 14 yr olds coming up here to work under the table? I'm sure you must.
I do not own slaves, so it is hyperbole - as for child labor laws, I have no problem with those. I guess we just draw the line in different places.
