7. The REAL action is where the rich farmers go South to pick them up.

They get farm workers to work on their farms - no questions asked by the police or Republicans. A lot of roofing and construction companies also employ them. They are all out there in the open on construction sites here in Florida. Not a lot of people are hardy enough to work on top of a roof in Florida in the summer. These workers must be in shape and very motivated to do these jobs. We are lucky that they are here. The average farm worker lives to be 42. Pretty inhumane.
