“Funny how the same people who argue ^ these points are often the same people arguing for higher minimum wages across the country. Why is it okay for businesses to pay burger flippers more money, but not okay for farmers to do the same with their workers?”

The farmers are paying more and they still cannot attract native born Americans to work there. They are even starting to offer benefits, but still no takers.

I’m certainly not opposed to farmers paying higher wages. Workers should make more then they are making now.

The same thing has been reported by other businesses, like construction co and other trades. They can’t get native born Americans to work for them. They are not complaining about having to pay more but that they can’t get workers regardless.
