Here’s the general issue. If ICE suddenly started showing up at cotton gins around Texas, Miss, Ala, or Louisiana...the bulk of the employees (mostly all illegals) would suddenly leave and the gins would be shut down for a week (extremely painful for cotton farms to handle) while the gin managers go and look for replacement employees. Most of these illegals? All paid $3 to $5 less than a regular employee.
I used to frequent a breakfast restaurant in Arlington, VA...which had six to ten guys in the back doing most of the work. The cashier and manager were gringos. The shop survived with reasonable prices because they were using illegals...probably making $3 to $5 less than legal employees of the region.
This is the way that the nation now functions, and a majority of people accept this as being normal. If they were all forced to only legal employees, then the cost factor across the nation would go quickly up and you’d see a high number of black youths hired, with the minimum wage going to a realistic ‘balance’. If you can’t find enough employees in a region....you up your salary structure.
interesting. That would have happened over many years.
"Probably"? Or maybe not........
