So the price of a head of lettuce is what's driving decisions about illegal immigration? Friggin' lettuce? OK then going forward, let it be known that I am perfectly willing to pay $8 for a head of lettuce. Read my tagline.

(If the lettuce cutters were paid $10 more per hour, the lettuce head would cost FIVE CENTS more.)

I posted an article some time ago that stated that illegals only account for about 3% of those in agriculture.
And labor only accounts for 10% of the cost of produce.
I'd have to do some digging to find the article.
