1. No.. it's an insult to the immigrants who are being exploited
Edited on Fri Apr-21-06 05:23 PM by IanDB1
The reason Americans won't do it is because it's below minimum wage, without benefits or legal protections or propper safety precautions.

But don't worry.

Someday, under the GOP Plan, desperate Americans will be allowed to renounce their citizenship to obtain a Guest Worker card and work-off their indentured servitude to regain their citizenship.

4. I want $50 an hour to pick lettuce
Great offer, Sen. McCain. Talk about out of it. Bushco of course wants cheap labor and no benefits. That's what his support of illegal immigration is all about; obviously nothing to do with people seeking a better life, as we have seen from his treatment of American citizens.

11. No, $50 an hour. McCain claimed Americans would not work for that.
Perhaps you missed it, or if I am being obtuse about satire, I apologize. But, McCain's statement was outrageous, and indicative of someone who needs to get out more, and not with rich Republican donors.
