The Spin is In
In recent weeks I have seen stories on local TV telling of the Viticulture (Wine Grape) and Horticulture (Landscape Plantings) efforts in Oregon and hammering in the importance of these industries to the economy and how much skill, ability and work is involved.
In my book the showings were intended to grease the pan to legalize the Illegal Aliens, but that direct pitch was left unsaid.
What was mentioned but not emphasized was the Chemicals both of these industries use in their daily operations.
Curious why our Oregon based environmentalists haven't shown any concern with these Labor Intense industries that are also Chemical Intense.
Looks as though the Tree Huggers Watershed concerns end at the City Limits?
What wasn't mentioned in either story was how these industries are totally dependent on what many call Illegal Alien workers and what most in their trades call Migrant Workers, even though most of them keep crews working almost all year.
