The Gong of Arnold Schwarzenegger

On Wednesday our acting governor vetoed a bill that would have given farm workers the same overtime pay earned by all other hourly workers in California. He did not want to upset agricorporations, who feast on cheap labor.

The social injustice is obvious.

Very hard stoop labor on farms is so badly paid that, in many places, the only people willing to do it are undocumented migrants. If you raised the pay, you might attract local citizens. But Schwarzenegger is too dim to think ahead. Steroids have solidified the gong he calls a head.
