nobody is going to convince me these corporations cannot afford to pay
higher wages. If my grandmother can do it and still make good profits, these
much more wealthy corporations can certainly do so.


I'm a city boy, so I don't know much about farming, except for a vague
idea that farmers
grow stuff that gets converted to food sold at supermarkets. And that
there are massive
government subsidies for farmers. To make for cheap food in the USA.
Or something
like that........
