<<You ever hear of a chicken plucker who made enough to do more than get by? I did do it for a living, remember? Or to grow up thinking that's all you can ever aspire to, not because it's not a decent job, but because that's all you were born for. The kids here deserve more than that.>> I agree. People should be inspired to get a better life. Then again we still need chicken pluckers. Or eat chickens with the feathers still on. Shit, I don't have the answers. Best I can say is chicken pluckers should have the same level of admiration and pay as lawyers. Chicken pluckers do help feed the nation. <<Are you really trying to imply in your responses that I'm downing Alabama, rather than looking at her honestly and wanting a good life for the people here? Or that I am putting down a job that I did myself?>> Not in the least. I'm sorry I don't HAVE all the answers. I don't need chicken pluckers as I have plucked geese. But those who do pluck chickens do have a right to change jobs.
