Matrf,
I've been to Mexico and was able to by fresh, beautiful fruit for literally pennies. If you want to claim someone is enslaving someone else, look to Mexico and how much they pay their own citizens to pick fruit! A man making $5 an hour to pick fruit in America is able to support his ENTIRE family still living in Mexico. We're not enslaving them, Mexico is. They come here to get out of economic slavery. Should we pay them more and increase the guest worker program for Mexicans who want to come here and pick fruit and vegetables? yes. Are we enslaving them? BY NO MEANS, we are helping them survive a garbled mess of an economy, which is Mexico. The disparity between rich and poor in Mexico is disgusting. If I were a lower-class Mexican, I'd come over here and pick fruit too.
