'The whole thing is screwed up': Farmers in deep-red Pennsylvania struggle to find workers

18. "Too spoiled"

That sums up the entirety of the Republican viewpoint on working people. They think working people are spoiled and need to be toughened up.

Spoiled with 40 hour work weeks and weekends off. If Republicans have their way, 7 day work weeks will return, no reason people can't work 84 hours a week.

Spoiled with retiring in your 60s. If Republicans have their way, we'll put those 80 and 90 year old Americans to work in the fields, if they die on the job, their bodies can be used as fertilizer.

Spoiled with the wages that allow workers to own homes, and buy stuff. If Republicans have their way, workers will work for food and a cot, which they'll pay for at the company store that owns everything.

Spoiled with all these costly worker safety laws. If Republicans have their way, these costly measures that save workers' limbs and health will be removed. If a worker loses a limb, toughen up, you'll get a day off, but if you can't make money for the owners, you're better off dead.

This is the world the billionaire class put Trump in place to bring back. It's detailed in books like the Grapes of Wrath. They are coming for it all.
