Journalist Charlie LeDuff on Americans who have been left behind

Clarence was a Korea Vet. Clarence died in a Michigan nursing home. They treated Clarence bad. They carted him around like a bag of soiled laundry. Nursing home to nursing home. He eventually died of Covid, spreading it along the way. Whitmer and Nessel still try hide the horror of what they did. I'm not gonna let them. | Charlie LeDuff

Still, none of them want the American factory jobs already gone to Mexico. There, they cheat and abuse you -- and pay far less than in the Michigan orchards.
