And then he can't buy an orange because goddamn they are expensive because wow it costs a lot to pay someone 15 bucks an hour (way less than he was paid in that long lost coal mine, mind you) so the prices are just too much for a guy who picks fruit for a living.
America was built and much of it lives on cheap labor. That's the way they've set it up. Can't really blame the guy at the bottom for the situation. It's like blaming the stick boy if there's a lockout in the NHL.
And what's this about tax dodgers going to jail? The president himself is a tax dodger. He's not in jail.
