| The New Bedford Raid... All the complaints about babies being stranded & families separated and "It's cold outside" are just excuses.
This was a bad situation that was left alone for WAY too long. Everyone involved had to know they were playing with fire. To cry when the house of cards finally comes falling down is ridiculous. They (owners, workers, etc..) all knew it was illegal and might not last forever.
Some solution needs to be found but it is not "winking" at a bunch of illegals who are being treated like sh*t. If they are going to stay get them processed and legal and then sic OSHA on the factory owners and make those MFers treat their workers like human beings. If companies need to save every last penny you might as well go to China, the workers in China are probably living better then these people were because everything is just less expensive over there. |
