Yes, and I worked too, first a babysitting and then part time, all through school because my parents believed that I should learn the value of money. And Feb had the same experience and I actually believe he did work on a farm for a time. But, my impression is that most young people today aren't interested in working that hard and really, why should they? Their parents give them everything. It's a different world now. In VA, after I moved and while I still had the house, I paid $50 to a young man from my realtor's church to come and mow my lawn.

You may not like minimum wage laws, but we have them. And I honestly don't believe that you would get many Americans who would work agricultural for minimum wage, much less less than minimum wage. The work ethic is seriously missing and it's not just because of welfare programs. It's our culture and the way our society has changed. Most young people now think they should get out of school and within 3 years they should be in charge. LOL.
