An Opinion I Agree With

What American would take this job, much less be able to live on it? Use this the next time people complain about immigrants taking American jobs.Migrant tomato workers-Their payday: about 45 cents for every 32-pound bucket of tomatoes they pick. That comes to about $50 for every two tons picked. On average, these workers earn less than $10,000 a year.

Hedge fund managers pay only a 15 percent tax rate on their billions in loot, while middle-class working families pay a rate up to 25 percent.

The next time you open a can of tomatoes, think about the migrant workers who picked them. And think about what it says about the morality of our economic system when one man - who makes money by betting against a rising economy - takes home a paycheck equal to that of 370,000 tomato workers who labor in the hot sun every day to put food on our tables.

And my 2 cents worth - we could have prisoners do the work, but it's already been established it's a violation of their rights and cruel and unusual punishment.

Nice, huh?
