In this interview with Greta on Fox News, Ben Carson explained why he thought Trumps deport em all policy was unworkable and why a guest worker program makes more sense.
Watch below:

Im not sure I agree completely with Ben Carson on that as far as Ive heard, the component price of produce having to do with labor is about 10%. So DOUBLING the wages you pay someone would only mean a 10% raise in the price of tomatoes. Would Americans be willing to pick tomatoes if they were paid $15-$20 an hour? I have a feeling they would.

Well, now that Carson has imploded his campaign with these crazy statements, I hope Cruz picks up all his supporters.

See # 95; these employers don’t even want American workers anymore.

Germany had a guest worker program, and the muslims have been degrading society for decades, soon to take over Europe. Ben Carson has jumped the shark.

Carson also invoked the 'jobs Americans won't do' mantra, instead of relying on FACTS:

As a poster said in another thread, ‘Donald Trump is an embarrassment when there’s so many thoughtful, intelligent and compassionate conservatives in the race.’
Could someone please point towards the conservative who isn’t willing and eager to throw open the borders even more?
Meantime, I think I’ll hold pat with the liberal Trump.

A lot of us held jobs to go through college, in our day. we didn’t have the government dolling out tax payers dollars for college students. Today there are a lot of those college debts going unpaid.

Sure, let me give you Ted Cruzs press release on his strong desire for 500% more working immigrants in the US:
Did he specify ILLEGAL immigrants?
Otherwise, no need for me to click on your link provided.

If Republicans continue spouting this nonsense they should save their money because they will just lose another election to an avowed communist; blaming American workers (and many of the unemployed) for this financial disaster is absurd. The Americans have responded by voting for communists and foregoing children; the ripple effect of the latter is that nobody needs to buy homes anymore either. Our Republocrat overlords have solved this problem by importing not just foreign workers, but foreigners to do everything Americans did twenty years ago (especially filling homes, classroom seats, and store aisles). Meanwhile, the shrinking number of American taxpayers foots the bill for EVERYTHING given to these foreign invaders.

To: Hojczyk
The premise is based on the illegals working for super lower wages. The dem trend is to increase minimum wage to $15 hour. so that argument goes away as the socialists continue to drive up the minimum wage. As the wages rise there will be a push for more automation.
so even if the part of the premise is correct that illegals will do what Americans won’t — at best this is a temporary problem. However if you legalize the illegal aliens then the illegals and their families are here forever to collect welfare as the jobs dry up due to automation
This is putting the best possible economic face on the problem since .. let’s not forget that these people are BREAKING THE LAW.
To: Resettozero
No, he wants them all to be legal. But that is what Carson wants, too, so, your point is...?

True, true and true. I have two daughters and 6 grandkids. All knew how to properly handle weapons by the time they were 8. Why you ask? Because Grandpa is not very optimistic about the USA’s future and when I am gone they will need to look out for themselves and each other.
To: Hojczyk
Illegals kill a lot of people.
I guess that “work” would be too hard for most Americans, thankfully.

...guest worker is not AMNESTY Absolutely wrong. "Guest worker" is a EUPHEMISM for amnesty when the guests are the burglars who broke into our house.
