Why donโ€™t farmers pick their own crops? Is there really an economic reason for them to hire illiterate peasants from other countries to pick the crops for them? Or are rednecks really this fat and lazy?

they are too lazy to buy a machine that picks it for them. America is neo-Carthaginian.

They are often fat, i dont think lazy though. All they have access to is stores full of goyslop. Talk about fucking food deserts. Problem is if there was a health food store many wouldnt go.

Agriculture is mostly automated or streamlined via machinery. It doesn't make sense to hire illegals to operate your multimillion dollar equipment since illegals wouldn't be held liable for potential damages. The "illegals are picking the crops" argument has been debunked thoroughly by anyone that's ever stepped foot on a commercial farm.
