Those lazy R's won't work that hard. Americans refuse to work in the fields. When GA deported all immigrants, they lost billions of $$ in spoiled veggies because no one here would work that hard for that kind of pay. They just walked off the job. Even when they had convicts ordered to pick, they just wouldn't so the state gave up the effort. Think something very similar happened in AL, but don't know if they used convicts there.
