TR> There aren't any *jobs Americans won't do*.

WD>Puhhh ...


WD>* The cherry orchards in the Flathead Valley (MT) cannot be harvested
WD>using Americans as none will work for that kind of money;


Typically, those who own such areas that involve a harvest of some sort
do not hire Americans, because they cannot cheat Americans like they
can a foreign worker.


They don't hire Americans because they can't work them ten or twelve
hours a day and not pay overtime.

They don't hire people who drive to and from, because they want
their workers living ON the work sight where they have a large
amount of control over them.

They usually don't hire American workers, period. I know....I've tried
to work for a few farmers before and they normally do not hire people
they can't treat like slave labor.


WD>* The vacation hotels in the national parks cannot function without
WD>foreigners because Americans will not work for that kind of money


That isn't true. I've worked in both state and national parks, and the
pay is excellent.



WD>* The whole fruit industry in California will go belly-up because
WD>Americans will not work for that kind of money


In the vast majority of cases the farmers themselves will not hire an
American because they can't treat Americans the way they can treat
someone who's:


1. Here in this country illegally

2. Has no motorized transportation and is thereby stuck at the mercy of
the employer

3. Will work like a slave for less-than-minimum wages, without a home
life, living in a hovel on the employer's property, no benefits, and
paying out of their wages a kick-back to the employer for the honor
of living in a drafty, sometimes dirt-floor shack, many times without
running water or electricity, and having to eat food not fit for a rat!


By the way....Shirley Sherrod disappeared from the news cycles for a
reason. Her former employees talk too much, and the way they were
treated `by a liberal leftist democrat' was beginning to spill out.


WD>Thousands of examples ... the keyword is "for that kind of money".


It was coming out that she and her husband were paying as little as
67 cents an hour!

They were employing under age children for hard labor!

They were making no provisions for safety in regard to some of their
employees getting sprayed with pesticides!

They fired any workers who dared to speak out on their unsafe
conditions.

They forced their workers to work overtime at night without any
advanced notice.

They had different pay scales for different employees doing the same
job! It was according to the whim of the `managers'.

They did nothing about working conditions even after it was raised
by the union.

The Sherrod's mismanaged the farm so badly it went bankrupt!

The irony of the Sherrod's recieving around $300,000 in a settlement
for their `pain and suffering' no doubt goes right over the heads of
most leftist democrats.


Thousands of examples....the key word is "treated that way".


I lived in Arizona and New Mexico, and worked for a few big farmers running
plows, fertilizers, harvesters, reapers.....back in the early 1970's.


The wages they paid me, and the wages they paid workers who did the
picking and boxing were two different things. For the day and age I
made pretty good money.


I'm one person. I don't set policy pertaining to farms or orchards.
