Under the H2-B program, "the foreign worker is bound to the sponsoring employer and if the employer terminates the employment relationship - even illegally - the worker loses his legal status to work or remain in the United States," the complaint states.I'm surprised no one has attempted to photograph this labor camp so the world can see the horror...or the hyperbole of the scare tactics of the complainant.
The Vanderbilts sent the plaintiffs and other workers to its labor camps in Mason and Smyrna, Tennessee.

In Smyrna?
You hear of the horror like living conditions of migrant workers in the fruit and vegetable fields of Florida and California. The cramped quarters and substandard housing is part of all good labor disputes. I am shocked to hear the word "labor camp" and "Smyrna" used in the same article...the same sentence even.
