SOME JOBS AMERICANS JUST WON'T DO:

Puerto Rican Coffee Farms Need Workers (Steve Harrigan, 11/23/09, Fox News)

In a time of massive layoffs, there are some jobs that nobody in Puerto Rico wants.

Puerto Rico has the highest unemployment in the U.S., at 17 percent, and that number will go higher if the government carries out plans to lay off 30,000 employees. At the same time, coffee plantations are desperate for workers. When the governor recently suggested people pick coffee, many considered it an insult.

Natives are lazy. They need Mexicans.
