That line just takes the cake.
I wonder what "adequate wages & benefits" would be required to have them pick artichokes or tomatoes twelve plus hours a day. I am guessing it would be slightly more than a few bucks a bushel.

Seriously what agricultural jobs have benefits? Anyone ready for 22.00 a pound tomatoes or 5.00 heads of lettuce.
Ok so why not go back to having slavery so you can buy cheap tomatoes? Maybe the benefits your friends and family have at work should be cut. I'm sure those benefits are costing ME money in some way. Also their pay should be cut.

By the way if tomatoes were $22 a pound I'd go to wal-mart buy some seeds and grow my own. Then I'd take the excess and sell them at the farmers market. See it's called the free market and peole aren't going to pay those prices for food so they can't charge those prices.
