Using the logic of the article we should bring back slavery then the farmers wouldn't be out ANY money for labor. Anyone here for slavery? Anyone..anyone?

What a farmer can afford to pay for labor is kept in check by what the consumer is willing to pay for produce.
Anyone here willing to pay $15 for a pint of strawberries? Anyone...anyone?
