15. An undercapitalized business is an undercapitalized business.
Under no circumstances do I find slavery acceptable.
Not to sound like a free market douchebag but supply and demand will even this one out. Just like it does with seafood. Just like it does with citrus.
Farmers don't have to go out of business. If they need to continue generating the same revenue then they'll have to charge more.
People can pay more for produce. There's room to negotiate with the current prices. I don't believe we should be feasting on cheap produce on the backs of desperate immigrants making less than a living wage.

Do you know how many sweet potatoes a worker is expected to harvest in an hour?
