Reading Blog #4

The problem with the slaughterhouse workers and the treatment is not the fact they are illegals or that they are not represented by a union. The issue is that these illegals are here to work hard and make something of themselves in the land of the freedom. Without these illegals many people don't realize what grocery prices would do. It is simple grocery prices would soar through the roof as if there aren't already high enough. These illegals or migrant workers will come to our country seeking a better life for their family, realizing that they are going to have to bust their ass to make it. They are not picky in what kind of work they will do. In fact many of the jobs they do are those that the white citizen wouldn't even fathom doing. These are the people who work the hot summer fields seven days a week, the slaughterhouses, the ditches for our utilites, and many other dangerous, gross, tideous, and termed worthless jobs of america.
