My bad for not getting the pronoun right and triggering you. Show me where I've ever used "concentration camp". Am I on a team? You sure seem to be.

A bit salty aren't we old bone? Take a nap and a valium and maybe you'll feel better. Or better yet, take a viagra and go find a hooker. You're in Reno after all.

The pickers are put up in old motels here in Yuma. 10 people to room. They ride to work on buses that shouldn’t be on the road. These buses travel through Telegraph pass at 10 mph. Every day one or two break down in the pass. At least once a month one will catch fire and burn to the ground. Their living and working conditions are shit for shit pay. These people are being exploited, that’s a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people are being exploited, that’s a fact. There's a similar thing happening in the tourist areas along the gulf coast. The workers are paying a 'broker (for lack of a better term) ' . $3.00 an hour from their wages ( they make around $10.00 to clean rooms,etc) For the privilege of having a job. These ' employment brokers' hold the work visas, and put them 10 or so into apartments. The workers still have to pay for rent etc . On $7.00 an hour. It's exploitation plain and simple.

thelawlorfaithful Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 This thread is very weird. Biden is definitely slipping from what was always a bad campaigner, but the rest of the real contenders are determined to go full retard so I don’t know what to think. @Joe from WY ease up on skier, he’s a reliable lefty that has always been sensible and decent. Don’t lump him in as a team’s and stuff moron. @renoskier your avatar is an upgrade in the way that dating your cousin is an upgrade from dating your sister. We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetropolitanCowboy Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Cheap labor from illegal aliens has only served to retard the development of newer technology over the years. There’s no reason we should exploit people and put them in the positions we do. People are still picking strawberries, lettuce, and countless other things...in the 21st Century. Without people exploiting workers in abhorrent conditions, we’d probably have better technological advances in agriculture, meat packing, etc. Without illegals, we wouldn’t have $50 heads of lettuce...technology would have brought us to a different point...as long as employers are exploiting undocumented workers, things will never move forward.
