94 million people out of the labor force. Maybe 1 or 2 of them could pick some lettuce?

I met her two or three years ago. She’s sure aged something fierce since then.
What a load of crap. Leftists are dumb chucks. How did America get by without illegal immigration before the 1980s? No illegals then and we ate just fine.
If there isn’t anyone willing to do a crap job for crap pay Americans have always just invented or innovated around the problem.
The problem is the illegals will refuse to do jobs lower than “hispanic activist” once they get legalized.
In 2014 farmers were complaining about Obama’s amnesty.
They need “in the shadows” if they want cheap farm workers.
Amnesty will make it worse.

A particularly bizarre moment in the immigration debate came and went almost unnoticed. At the same House subcommittee hearing at which Stephen Colbert testified, Rep. Steve King (R- Iowa), who opposes legalization for the undocumented workers who plant, pick, harvest and package a substantial portion of the nation’s crops and produce, offered this alternative: Americans could simply wean themselves from fruits and vegetables. Salad, broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, etc., cannot be all that important to human health, King suggested, huffing “I’m wondering how the Eskimos got along all those centuries without fruits and vegetables!”
Someone ask Interior Secretary Sally Jewell if all the illegals are in the fields working hard, why are there millions of illegals in many of our major cities?
We did fine for several hundred years without the illegals. Maybe not quite as much food but it was enough to survive on. America is reportedly obese so the illegals can go home so we can lose weight, right? After all that’s in line with the liberal agenda; except they forget how many of their own are morbidly obese, video game playing, couch potatoes. Plus with all of them gone we won’t need near as much food two much less EBT handouts. That will allow us to pay down our debt and work less hours a week to fund it. It’s a Win, Win situation.
You might think he is wrong and being an idiot...no buts here you’d be right...
Throw out the illegals and then stop paying able-bodied people to not work.
Note they never make a distinction between legal and illegal immigration.
It is on purpose. They like to frame anti illegal immigration folks as just being total anti immigration. Thats why they frame it that way.
Everyone with a brain sees what they are doing.
Uh-huh...and without homosexuals, no one’s hair would ever get cut and styled.
has this child ever heard of automation? 40 million illegals and we still have a shortage of produce pickers, but we won’t starve, robotics will be hard at work.

If we did not have such a reliance on below minimum wage immigrant labor for our agriculture products, listeria outbreaks would be nonexistent. Taco Bell would still be serving green onions on its Mexican pizza, Chipotle would never had to shut down, and nobody would have had to pretend near-illiterate workers from central America weren’t crapping in the spinach fields for Dole.
Sally comes forth........she’s a pimp for the current admin

They eat just fine in Europe without it. Because most of agricultural picking is automated. Innovations occur when cheap labor is eliminated
“Why do these Obama appointees look like they might know a black magic spell or two?”
If you want them to look good, imagine their heads on pointed sticks.
