Cotton triggering, LOL.

Had a friend who’s father picked cotton in the South, a sharecropper who raised a handful of kids who turned out fine. My friend was a wonderful woman, raised two excellent sons, had her own business making pretty headscarves for women who’d lost their hair due to chemotherapy, employed several other nice black ladies.. And then, all the fabric mills closed, moved to China. As a result, she couldn’t buy small quantities at wholesale anymore, nothing less than truckloads—or full retail. Drove her out of business.

So. Picking cotton helped her, but globalism hurt.
