Without immigrants, our economy collapses. Some of those advocating for the removal of immigrants are unaware of this, but some are counting on it. These are the enemies of America and some of them are now inside the White House.

quote:

Brian Cash can put a figure to the cost of Alabama's new immigration law: at least $100,000. That's the value of the tomatoes he has personally ripening out in his fields and that are going unpicked because his Hispanic workforce vanished literally overnight.

Obviously, you neglected to include the word illegal.

Wow how did we get our crops before globalization and the rape of our country? I swear there were even white roofers and laborers back then.

So Brian just admitted to harboring illegals for his business? Not very smart is he?

Dude you need to take a break and get some fresh air. If you live in Austin, surely youve got better things to do than troll this board...unless of course its a source of income

Yep that's why the cotton industries disappeared when the republicans freed the slaves.

I live in Alabama and could use some extra work. Will those farmers pay me a respectable wage to entice me to come out there? If so, sign me up.

what he isnt talking about is that the rest of the taxpayers are subsidizing his business. it is us that has to pick up the tab that comes with illegal immigration.

he needs to rethink how he does business or find a a new way to make money.

Almost 100 million citizens are out of work.

Seems like a solution in there somewhere...
