In my area there are thousands of acres of grapes and fruits, and all the picking is done by migrant workers. Grapes can be trimmed on in the winters and winters have been mild enough to keep these workers going year after year. The problem I have with illegals is they do not pay taxes, and there's no means of vetting them to know if they have violent or criminal backgrounds. Some are mules and carry drugs over the border, then turn themselves in for a ride home after they make their deliveries. Scrappers are bad, too. They drive around and check out farms, looking for scrap metal to turn in. Some are honest. Others will tresapass and look through buildings and take more than scrap metal. Regarding political refugees, we need to fix the process if there is a legitimiate reason for people to seek asylum. Living in a shitty, backward country isn't enough. --- þ Synchronet þ The Cave BBS - Since 1992 - cavebbs.homeip.net .
