If thy poster does not agree with my views, he's a liberal
I'm actually against our government setting a minimum wage.

OK, fine. I'll amend: Draconian Sanctions wants Mexicans, Guatemalans, etc. to be a permanent underclass.

I wonder how much Soros is paying them to sit on their asses and do nothing and/or riot.

I am in the ag world. Plenty of farmers hire legal Mexicans to work on their farms. It's actually more expensive to legally hire them than hiring a US citizen.
The more you know....

Are you saying the underlying point of this article is somehow less relevant today?

Immigrants. Except they were white or very tan.

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.
to be fair.. this a-hole was probably violating half a dozen labor laws. frick him for being part of the problem.

if he was hiring illegals then he is a felon and he should be locked up. we have the best laws don't we?
doesn't make sense? i'd be more inclined to show him some discretion if he absorbed the costs of hiring people on the up and up.

I posted a thread about NCs American farm hand shortage the other day. Only 7 made it through growing season with preferential hiring status. Let these idiots reap what they sow. They don't care about how much they rely on immigrants. Nope. Let them eat the increased prices.

Trump is pro-immigrant.
He is anti-illegal alien

It's his own fault if his crop dies. He should have staffed his pickers thru the legal worker program instead of from the ranks of illegals.
