Eventually the kids all starting wanting more money and started working slower, now no american kids work tobacco at all around here, all immigrant workers. and its been that way for awhile. It would be impossible to have any chance at profit if you had to pay american kids to cut/hang tobacco. We decided we didn't want to get into the hiring of seasonal labor and stopped growing tobacco.
