    CHECK your story again. I read the same thing.......The story was about a potato farmer, but the EXAMPLE given was about tomato picking.

    Here is the story I saw......and I think it is the same one you're talking about.

    your right, it was tomatoes given in the example. I didn't read the story, I was listening to it on tv while getting ready for work. and they were talking to a potato farmer. I never heard anyone say tomatoes. I thought they were talking the whole time about potatoes. but anyway it don't change a thing to me, 6 mexicans that will do almost a 3rd more work than 25 american males, that is sad. I think 25 women could do more work than that.
