A Small Investment In ‘Small’ People?

If your family worked the Fields ( mine did for- C & H ) this one is going to sting….and it should make you question why people who expect so much from us ( like I don’t know….things like making them President )  find ways to do so little in return.

SAO PAULO, Brazil (AP) — A team from Brazil’s Labor Ministry found ”degrading” living conditions for 133 sugarcane workers employed by an ethanol company whose investors include former President Clinton and other high-profile financial players  presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton ….

and then comes the disclaimer which is even worse:

Bill Clintonspokesman Matt McKenna said that the former president’s investment made via Yucaipa was small but that he had been assured Brenco was ”committed to the highest ethical standard with regard to the treatment of its workforce and of the environment.”

Hey Bill and Hills- IF FIELD WORKERS ARE INVOLVED IT WOULD BE SMART IF YOU CHECKED THE SITUATION OUT A LITTLE MORE THOROUGHLY BEFORE YOU INVEST ANY AM0UNT OF MONEY….A LOT OF FIELD WORKERS  DON’T HAVE THE BEST LIVING CONDITIONS HERE IN THE STATES.

ONE CAN ONLY ASSUME IT’S LESS ‘GREAT’ IN OTHER FREAKING PLACES!
