In USA's winter time we buy fruit and viggies from Chile. During our growing season up here in USA we sell fruit and Veggies back to Chile during their winter time.
Yes in USA the average person will not accept working the long hard hours that a Migrant worker will. The large Corp farming groups exploit the migrant workers, paying them below minimum wage and then charging them rent and other things. What money the migrant workers can save they send most of it back home to feed their families there.
So to get this all back to USA workers doing the work in USA, the pay would need to triple and health beni's paid, so the costs at the store would need to quadruple..... No win.
