Farmworker Story Fails
http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2013/...ost-consumers/
another propaganda story in relation to a local farming operation. Doing just a slight bit of sleuthing, his claims seem to fall. The article insinuates that his workers are paid 14.00 per hour, however his ads say 8.00 per hour. Did I mention his ads were for immigrants in China, not the US? He's an H1B worker shill. I couldn't find ANY ads for local workers. The newsmedia will not publish my comment in relation to this either |
It seems Ray Yeung is an heirloom tomato farmer who caters to the high end restaurant market. He mentions that he has lost crops due to over fertilization and over watering, but he makes no mention of labor shortage in another Sac Bee interview reposted on this Tomato growing oriented website page http://www.tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=14828. The $14.00 an hour claim might be true or even understated with subsidized housing, welfare, Cal State subsidized van pools and other taxpayer / ratepayer / public subsidies, the claim might mean there is a possibility of total compensation worth $14.00 hr with Yeung only contributing $8.00. He might even point the way to the subsidies to new hires. Of course Yeung would necessarily leave out mention of subsidies in media interviews, it would make him look cheap and dishonest, which he seems to be.

I wonder why he's looking for H1B Chinese laborers and the probable reporting requirements attached rather than the customary Mexican and Guatemalan illegals already here pounding on his door? He could pay them $14.00 an hour cash and they'll trample over one another getting to his farm. Could you enlighten us more concerning his help wanted ads? |
