I know a lady who is retired. She goes to a dairy farm, EARLY EVERYDAY. She does it for free because she loves it.

It is not God-Awful. I grew up on a farm. Hauling hay and shoveling manure in 100 degree weather is much worse.

Started helping my daddy milk when I was 4. Wouldn’t trade it for anything and wouldn’t get in the business either. There are a lot of strong people who would rather be in the weather and under the sky than being cooped up in an office all day. To each their own.

Why can’t we force prisoners to do the work illegals are currently doing and Americans refuse to do?
For that matter, make welfare recipients work there

News flash. They don't hand milk cows anymore.

Dims prove they're stupid more and more with every passing day. You mention animal or crop farming and they automatically picture a white guy in overalls on an old Ferguson TE20 screaming at a few Mexicans to work faster. They literally have no clue.

Livestock and agriculture are a multi-million dollar industry and they make great use of state-of-the-art technology and equipment.

Ana is one festering angry count.

Why don't the Dems just SAY life is better with full on slavery and get it over with?

They've been angry at Republicans since Lincoln freed their cheap labor !

My aunt and uncle worked a dairy farm for their entire lives.

I helped when visiting. It’s not God awful work. It’s a hard job because it’s twice a day but other than that it’s certainly not God awful.

There are machines that do that, and even if not, it's not exactly a difficult job.

I'd probably rather milk cows than harvest corn or cotton, which are all done by machine now also.

All farming is difficult work



I grew up farming and ranching and while there is a lot of demanding, physical labor to parts of farming, all of it is not difficult. Dairy is a bitch though.


I still go back and help with branding and harvest season from time to time and while the hours can be tough and roping and dragging calves to the branding iron and cutting bull calves is tough there is nothing else in farming that compares to milking 3X a day and everything else it takes to get milk.

Worse than that Ann, who is going to make all the milking stools for the folks to sit on?

She’s obviously never worked on a dairy farm or even seen one because most cows have been milked by machines for years

Illegal immigration is the modern day slave trade.

No it’s not. Slaves were taken from their homes against their will. Illegal immigrants are leaving their homes because they want to. Good grief, you should not need this explained to you.

She's a fat, ignorant cvnt. She is too lazy to do her homework before opening her cock holster.

How it’s set up now the damn cows basically milk themselves.

I mean when did the Democrat party get so fricking dumb?

They think:

1. We hand milk cows
2. The moon is made out of cheese
3. Slavery still exists in the US
4. Boys can be girls whenever they choose
5. A beating heart child in their mother's womb is not a living thing (but a singular cell organism on Mars is life )


I mean the list can go on and on and on.
