They were "migrants" when all they did was to pick fruit and vegetables.
Now they are doing construction work and many other jobs that don't require them to "migrate" all over the country.
Many fruit and vegetable picking jobs are now done by machine. We don't need nearly as many "migrants" to pick crops anymore.
So why are so many more of them here now?
What part of that don't you understand?

Now that you put it that way, I *do* understand. I never said I liked the situation. It is shameful what has been done to this Country. It has been sliced and diced. Hardly anyone is an American any longer, unless there is a hyphen attached with another nationality after it.
I guess I just wanted to vent. I will go back into the lurking mode now.
Thank You,
