Just hire Americans; pay them a decent wage; raise your prices.
We'll pay it. We always have. Americans are not going to starve themselves because you hired American Workers.

"Unfair". Right, now they will not be able to buy a new Cadillac Escalade every year, or buy that bigger vacation cabin at Lake Tahoe.
You know when the H2A program first came out they talked about how great it was. Now they cannot stand it?Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

They have been allowed to get away with this so long they refuse to change and will hound our congress until they pass a bill in their favor instead of changing their ways.
Another example of businesses running or government.With 300 million people in the US wouldn't you think they could find a work force ?

Food Smood ..........
Why are we worrying about our Famers
I thought most of our funky food comes from China and South of the border
mmmmm Farm Fresh Catfish with anti-body's
Ecolli ...... gimme a bite of that "Yummy"
Famers want low cost "Cheap Labor" so they can export good food to countries that have a FDA that protects it's citizens and get a higher return ... here ... we are just a number that consumes, consumes, consumes and gets fat
So what if the some of the workers have Hepititis A or B and takes a dump in the carrot patch ... common, take a chance... the hell with Los Vega's ... your food supply is risky enough
While we at home are subject to nasty cheap products flooding our oconomy All I got was a belly ache :PJoin our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
