True. Of course employers always want the lowest cost labor. Look at the early Covid days at the meat plants. They were treated horrible. If a lot of these places had their way, they'd probably vote to get rid of child labor laws too.
Meat processing could be tough to do but most produce picking could probably be easily automated and more economical. Sensors could identify ripeness by not just color but other scannable characteristics. Robotics could even pick 24/7 since they wouldn't need sunlight to see.
LA landscapers are often illegals yet here in the midwest, it seems everyone and their brother does it. (I've never understood paying someone that much to mow a lawn) Then again, they have robotic mowers now too.
