   We are treating our allies and for that matter, our own citizens HORRIBLY. Shame, shame, shame on us.

   Interesting trivia of WWII history and beyond! Mexican migrant labor has been critical to agricultural production in California — Mexican laborers work the fields willingly in food production, and for many years in the Central Valley they labored in the cotton farms (at one point CA was the largest cotton-producing state!). They diligently work the jobs that our citizens will not accept, yet those that are critical to the success of the country. It is unfortunate that they are castigated by those who do not understand their value!
