Federal agents found more than two dozen minors illegally working inside a poultry plant in Kidron, Ohio, earlier this month, according to local immigration advocates who spoke to NBC News on the condition of anonymity.
The children, mainly from Guatemala, according to the advocates, were working in meat processing and sanitation in a plant run by Gerber’s Poultry, which produces Amish Farm Chicken, advertised with the slogan “Better feed, better taste.”
I work in RVs, most parts work here is done by minors. They pull them out of school once they pass 8th then throw them into a factory until they’re 18, and they only get to keep a small portion of the money they even earn. It’s gross and exploitative but it’s treated like it’s “good healthy character building” for the kids.
The Amish have a very seedy underbelly that they do a very good job of hiding from the public, but trust me when I say their shit doesn’t smell any sweeter than the rest.
RVs? As in recreational vehicles?
Yes
Huh, there’s a YouTube I follow from time to time who was raised in a conservative Amish community. He definitely has a perspective but I’ve learned a lot from his videos.
