The Bracero Program: Migrant Workers in America Documentary Part 2 (1959)

[MsPamAnn]

When Americans go shopping, we cannot afford to buy and eat fresh fruit and vegetables. No one talks about the fact that large farms are owned by CORPORATIONS. Just to buy an apple is $1.00 in most stores. Buying sour grapes can cost you $4 a pound. Buying one bell pepper can cost you $2.00. The answer is obvious that these farmers are making such a PROFIT from using these illegals, that they don't want to hire legal Americans. Farmers pay illegals $3-4/hour. Minimum wage is $12/13 hr.
