But, will robots do the voting that illegal aliens won’t be doing?
How did America ever manage to feed itself from 1787-1980 without massive hordes of illegals?
It is a mystery...
Yes!!
Dems will give them citizenship and names
And they’re not “immigrants” and never were “immigrants”
They are “immigrants” in the same way the Germanic tribes were “immigrants” to Rome at the end.
As it should be. Raise wages for native workers, and we’re golden. Cheap food AND good jobs.
On the bright side robots probably won’t poop in the lettuce.
So tell me, what is wrong with robots replacing illegal alien workers?
Not especially good timing for this article with a romaine lettuce warning across the country
At least we know the robots are here legally...
They didnt have salad bags back then.
I think the headline has it backwards. Non-immigrant (the Times left out “non”) H-2A visas are unlimited, but the employer has to pay for transport, lodging, and food. More robots, fewer seasonal workers needed, less red tape. Crab pickers needed in MD and VA, come in on H-2B visas, which are limited.
No hace caca en la espinaca!!!
Typical slimes irrelevant news to make a commie political point...
Saw an illegal trying to figure out why the shopping carts were chained together today... he didn’t have a clue
This is manure. More than 3 million migrant and seasonal farmworkers are estimated to be in the United States.
In an expanded study, according to the National Center for Farmworker Health, Inc, the majority (72%) of all farmworkers are foreign born, 68 percent of all farmworkers were born in Mexico, 45 percent were from the traditional sending states of west central Mexico, including Guanajuato, Jalisco and Michoacán, 20 percent of farmworkers were from the non-traditional sending states of southern Mexico, including Guerrero, Oaxaca, Chiapas, Puebla, Morelos and Veracruz, 3 percent of farmworkers were born in Central American countries, 1 percent of farmworkers was born elsewhere.
Twenty-nine percent (29%) of foreign-born farmworkers have spent 20 or more years in the United States, 26 percent have been in the U.S. for 10 to 19 years, 19% have been in the U.S. for 5 to 9 years, and 26% have been here for 4 or less years. Farmworkers in the United States have an average age of 36. Seventy-six percent (76%) are over 25 years old, 13 percent are between 18 and 21, 9 percent are between 22 and 24, and 3 percent are between 14 and 17.
Seventy-eight percent (78%) of crop workers were male and 22% were female. Fifty-nine percent (59%) of farmworkers surveyed were married, 35% were single and 6% were divorced, separated or widowed. Fifty two percent (52%) of all agricultural workers were parents. And noted for English speaking ability: 35 percent said they could not speak English at all, 30 percent said they could speak English well, 27 percent said they could speak English a little, and 8 percent said they could speak English somewhat.
The average level of completed education was 8th grade. 40 percent had completed grades 1 to 6, 17 percent completed grades 7 to 9, 28 percent had completed grades 10 to 12, and 9 percent attained some form of higher education.
As for the families of the low-skilled working immigration population in the country, 51 percent (76 percent counting immigrant-led households with children) are collecting some sort of check from our welfare services.
So they aren’t getting younger because the welfare capacity and the free education they get handed to them is lucid enough to sustain them without taking low level jobs they are barely trained to accomplish. Pavlov rang the dinner bell and they showed up in force. They aren’t getting younger because the US is providing a better form of life than they will ever get doing what they are actually capable of using funds through the welfare system. And taxpayers are paying the bills.
So, as usual, the NY Times is not telling the truth. They are covering the real problem. If it wasn’t for the welfare system, the free health care, and the free educations system so they can get enough education to get a better job, they would be in the farm workers status just like the people that got into the US before them and weren’t offered the benefits they are receiving and were trapped in their position and held there. So they had to continue to support the people that put them there so they could eat and send money home to a family they can’t bring up to the US for lack of funds or their illegal status.
