To: Do not dub me shapka broham
Just like we're subsidizing the sloth and profligacy of Farmer Bill, who is too damn penurious to enlarge his payroll beyond anyone who isn't an illegal alien working for sub-minimum wage.

Just shows how little you know about agriculture. First of all, Farmer Bill is not eating from the government trough. "Farmers" like ConAgra are. They're the ones hiring illegals. Not the small family farms like Farmer Bill. He can't afford to anyway. He's got other costs to worry about like equipment costs for starters, which are a large part of the farmer's budget.

"Farmers" like ConAgra are pricing the little guy out of the marketplace, even though the little farmer is doing most of the hard labor.

Well, that's not the only ones hiring illegals here in upstate New York. Farmer Bill is, with impunity. The local law enforcement does nothing, because the illegals aren't "committing felonies." So, in upstate NY, Farmer Bill is exactly who's hires the illegals.
