Farm Kids,
As a kid I worked in the orchards, pitched pea vines, bucked bails, etc. Most of the kids that went to high school with me worked in the Agriculture someway. I worked in the cannery stacking boxes and driving fork lift during college. Hard physical work didn't anyone of us. It sure would do a lot of inner city kids a world of good to work in the orchards and see just what kind of labor it takes to put food on the table. I believe we have brought this crisis upon ourselves by becoming a soft nation.
