I'm not sure how to respond without being glib, but there's more to life than fruit.

Safe working conditions are worth 5 pound strawberries.

Sure - there's more to life than fruit, massages, receiving trucked goods, and being attended to by health techs - but add it all up and you're missing quite a huge chunk of "life", IMO.

If a system depends on disposable workers to provide those things than it's not a system we should be supporting. We need to figure out how to provide a wage large enough to provide for everyone, not just the lucky few who have an army of slaves to meet their needs. Currently we don't and we are stealing the human capital of the second world to support our failing countries.

Why do you assume they're unsafe? That's not in the article. It appears you've created a strawman.
