****The Senate bill also specifies that illegals will be paid "prevailing wage" that means union wages to you novices.****

Holy cow, you're right.

But that means we're DOOMED !!! Lettuce will cost $10.00 a head, strawberries, $5.00 each and a T-Bone steak $55.00!!

That will kill our economy, and - "the small farmer" - so naturally we'll need another 20 million illegals to keep the price of produce down.

Actually, it means another wave of illegals to replace the ones "shamnestied."

Why is it that the left and their allies keep telling us that food will cost more if we end illegal immigration but they keep enacting these worthless dairy compacts which keeps a gallon of milk above $3?? Of course, I know the answer. A hatred of real capitalism. If the dairy compact were to end, competition would bring the price down almost immediately and if illegal immigration stopped, we might come up with a machine that picks lettuce, which would lower its price.

No, the leftits love their unions, and their guilds, and their subsidies, and their taxes. They care nothing about the cost of production.
