I was assured that we needed illegal immigrants to perform farming duties because the pay was too low.

It's not the pay, it's the difficulty of the work.

Goes to show you how lazy Americans are.

Especially when you feed them to be lazy.

We need to let them get hungry - real hungry. Then we can find out what kind of work "Americans just won't do." Hunger is a great motivator. Or else let em starve - don't need that kind around to spread his seed anyway.

As many as it would fricking take to feed my family.

But u guess I was just raised different than leeches.

And by the way, I've worked on a farm shoveling manure and other jobs a hell of a lot harder than that for 1/4 of what he's offering to work my way out of the poor house.

It's how things are supposed to be done instead of sucking the taxpayer tit perpetually.


You might be the exception, but you know as well as I do that those American "leeches" are not going to move their family and essentially be migrant workers and produce near what the Mexican produce. The best system was in place. It has worked for years. Instead of that fricking wall, Trump should be working on a system that ensures these Mexicans can work in US legally.

But this makes a good argument in favor of differently documented immigrants. There remain jobs that Americans won't do.

The only sane way is to offer some kind of work visa to the Mexicans

Yes, if only there were such a program...

quote:

The H-2A temporary agricultural program establishes a means for agricultural employers who anticipate a shortage of domestic workers to bring non-immigrant foreign workers to the U.S. to perform agricultural labor or services of a temporary or seasonal nature. In 2015 there were approximately 140,000 total temporary agricultural workers under this visa program.
