>>Getting people from the cities to the far-away "farm jobs" is a joke--and they know it.<<

Lots of low wage jobs in the cities. On my daily walks, I often pass the groundskeeping crew at the apartments next door. Spanish spoken exclusively. The basement walls of my condo are the association's problem, so a workman is sent to plug leaks. He has a Mexican flag tat on his arm, and personal calls on his cell are always in Spanish. Folks from the east side of Detroit, don't need to go outstate to replace people who were either deported, or gone to ground, to avoid being deported.
