Let's file this one in the "you can't make this up" category.
Down Mexico way, they are running out of farm workers.
For decades, Mexicans crossed the border to pick Americans’ lettuce, grapes and strawberries. Mexico had a seemingly inexhaustible supply of farmhands — tough, hard-working men who did the jobs most Americans didn’t want.But the country is running short of farmworkers.The workforce is graying; nearly three-quarters of Mexican campesinos are over 45. Young people are turning up their noses at farm jobs. And those willing to do migrant work have other options. Nearly 300,000 a year travel to the United States on seasonal agricultural visas, a fourfold increase in a decade.
“They’re taking a significant percentage of the available workers,” fretted Aldo Mares, a farm executive here in Jalisco state. He’s had to scramble this season to find workers to pick his juicy strawberries, blackberries and raspberries.

What these idiots from south of the border don’t know, is that in the not so distant future, the border will be impregnable, only it will be there to prevent people from escaping, not coming to America. And they will be responsible for paying taxes to service $100 trillion in debt. When the music stops, America will be like East Germany, except we won’t have anywhere better to go.
Forget the sweat labor, they are making too much money peddling drugs and girls!!
Or the money and other free stuff over here.
“tough, hard-working men who did the jobs most Americans didn’t want.”
Let me fix that... “tough, hard-working men who did the jobs most Americans GETTING WELFARE AND SITTING ON THEIR ASSES didn’t want.”
Gross
Where should they relieve themselves if they are not given bathroom facilities?
“Where should they relieve themselves if they are not given bathroom facilities?”
Well certainly not on my house.
If they had ASKED ME, I would have had no problem with going behind a small completely secluded shed I have in the corner of my back yard.
That would however have required at least one of ‘em to be able to speak english. 🤷
I always told my wife “if you buy from a roadside stand make sure you bleach that stuff, I don’t want to eat any WETBACK ASS PICKENS”.
She thought I was just being “RACIST” until she was on her way home one day and passed a strawberry field that was being harvested.
She actually saw two of the workers DIGGING AT THE CRACKS OF THEIR ASSES!
After that she started bleaching any and all produce regardless of where she bought it!
Our free chit in the USA beats working for a living in Mexico.
For decades, Mexicans crossed the border to pick Americans pockets Biden increased the amount of them and the rest of the world.
Free stuff for a lifetime.
I use Dawn ... generously on every fruit and vegetable. Even from grocery stores — not just roadside stands.
I thought I was being weird until my friend told me she used Dawn, too. She was Director of the Health Department in a large state.
Let’s ship all the DC politicians there to do something useful.
