More Quotes from Steve Smitson:
Every single day, day laborers get into cars with people they don't know. They take their lives into their hands just to make 10 an hour. Katrina is a real opportunity to bring the exploitation of these workers out into the open, to bring to the fore how much of our economy depends on the exploitation of these workers.Steve Smitson
