I agree with what thehmsbeagle said in-thread: This entire discussion on agriculture and labor is a terrific read with informative, interesting points on all sites. Check it out if you haven't already!

Highly civilized bunch in there. No name calling, just piling on pithy paragraphs!

Yep, that's good stuff. I'll have to send that discussion to my friend who specializes in agriculture in developing economies. She may have something to add.
