It will be sweet cherry season soon. The price right now looks like $5 a pound for typical bargain mass market cherries domestically. The worker gets paid $0.21 per pound. They're probably the cheapest cost to cherry production and yet the most important. The worker has to pick more than 24 lbs. of cherries to be able to afford themselves to be able to buy just one pound. As with most businesses, much handwaving and exclamation of "costs" will be displayed while Republicans are given money. 3/4
