I disagree. They aren’t paying enough to get American applicants.

The only good thing I can say about it is they are hiring legally and only 29 people.

Get rid of welfare and that will change.

H2-A labor pencils out to $20 per hour. I’m paying tractor drivers $26 per hour, plus safety bonus, plus acre bonus, plus end of year bonus, plus 100% medical insurance for employee with 50% for dependents, plus paid sick leave. I think you folks need to pay more for your vegetables.

That’s a huge factor. They pay a livable wage and they’ll get employees. What they’re paying illegals are chump change, like wages from the 1990s. This has been the problem all along with thousands of unscrupulous greedy employers as the government stood by winking and nodding as they played right into their new world order globalist plans.

Agreed. Apparently the market can take a leap if it means raising wages to attract American workers.

50% of RNs in NC make 58k or less per year many with Bachelor Degrees. Do you really think someone who tends grapes should earn within about 7 dollars an hour of an RN?
