A truck farmer once complained to me that all he could hire were
illegals as citizens did not want to do the work. The solution would be
to pay more than the citizens were collecting in welfare or don't give
the citizens as much welfare so they need to work.


Strangely, when I saw "truck farmer" the first thing I thought of was a
truck made from marijuana (saw that in a movie once).


Yes I've seen that too. Cheech and Chong I think.

And the above is incorrect. People earning low wages can claim working tax credits which start at the same amount as unemployment benefit. So you never earn the same or less by doing more work.
