“I worked in the Hot Sun, shoveling dirt, and other items and I was only paid $10 an hour. I wonder why you make three times that much for the same job in California.”

Fools rush in

In this posting I, perhaps foolishly, enter the discussion of whether to boycott or support our Republican leadership as they prepare to destroy our country with incredible ?comprehensive immigration reform?. I enter this scary place because I do belie…

Methinks the LA Times overlooks the fact that Ms. Smallwood is likely only offering “contract” positions without any benefits, guarantee of employment and likely no protection should a worker get hurt. Sad really, there should be a thriving business in the temporary labor market, oh wait, there is!
