Ave Maria is seen as a catalyst to broaden and strengthen the economy of Immokalee, a town with a long agricultural history and a large population of poor migrant farmworkers.
Collier County Commissioner Jim Coletta said Ave Maria's massive construction project has dramatically decreased Immokalee's unemployment rate from about 17% to an actual shortage of workers.
"Immokalee has full employment now," he said. "If anybody wants work, there's a job. Ave Maria has been a godsend for Immokalee."
Well, well, well. Nothing like a paying job to give a man a sense of dignity. THE SWEET SMOKE JUST KEEPS RISING FROM OUR CENSER.
NB: Inigo has not yet issued a statement on this matter.
