Just watched an older Real Time. Guest was Eva Longoria. She was talking about Farm Worker abuse and low pay. Piece work in Florida - workers paid by the pound. She got most major fast food chains and grocery outlets - even Wal Mart - to agree to a per pound raise. It will cost residents about $25/year in increased tomato prices, and give farm workers a live able wage. So proud of her. So sad this is what I picketed with the UFW for 45 years ago ( with Joel Joel Schaffer) and studied and taught about in college and it is just now happening. I guess better late than never
