- bertjk 8y agoThat doesn't make much sense. Someone in a position to invest millions (or take out millions in loans) would more likely be paying someone else wages to do the work, whether 18 hours or whatever. From what I hear contract poultry farming has become almost a turnkey sort of business. You contract with one of the poultry majors, they supply you with a lot of the supplies you need for whichever niche you occupy, and then basically guarantee buying your entire output.
- pathseeker 8y ago>Yeah... it's indentured servitude That phrase doesn't mean what you think it means. If you can declare bankruptcy, you can't be an indentured servant.
- zeofig 8y agoSo you can get out at any time if you don't mind ruining your life in the process? I think the phrase is apt enough.
