I think people here illegally should not be working and should be deported. But what is the plan for who is going to pick the crops, clean the offices and hotel rooms, work in fast food and restaurants, etc?

The people who were doing these before. I've worked on a farm, cleaned offices and worked in fast food. Those are entry level jobs where you learn some basic business skills.

For the farming jobs, there could be a migrant plan like we've had before. You can be here temporarily. All you get is a pay check. No taxpayer subsidies. Nothing.

Obviously rents and prices will go up, but do we have enough people who will even do those jobs?

It's not rents....it's rent. You don't pay rents.

The next thing we'd have to do would be to cull the disability rolls. There are people on disability who can work....they just won't. We need to end that subsidy.

We have enough people to work.

Are employers prepared to pay at least minimum wage for this work, and are consumers willing to pay the related price increases?

Thank you for the lesson in English. Forgive me. I work in commercial real estate and we use the word rents to refer to income generated from multiple tenants.
