I too don't agree with all the statements in the email I posted.
Rocky The farmers and processers here don't have to pay a decent wage to the migrants because you and I are paying the benifits that any other employer would have to pay either in benifits or higher wages to get workers. If I went and did the same job I would get the same wage with out the free daycare and meals for the kids, foodstamps, housing, health care etc. The only cost to the farmer is what few pennies of his personal income tax might go to provide the services the migrants get.
Where I do agree with it is the fact that the migrants Legal or Illegal are given benefits that are denied to NON MIGRANTS doing the same job for the same pay.
Years ago there was a health clinic opened in the county that was free to all farm workers. Now the name on the clinic is MIGRANT CLINIC. I have never heard why the other farm workers are now being discriminated against.
I don't know if it takes proof of citizenship in order to get a ss card. Do you know Fabs? They get illegal green cards all the time.
Come over here and watch the steady stream of migrants going into the Social Service office with there hand out. All this and on the weekends they are lined up getting money orders at the banks and postoffices getting money orders to send there check back to there banks back home. They live for free here so they can bank there money back home.
They have great planned parenthood. They make sure to stay in Michigan till they have there kids because the state of Michigan will pick up the tab.
